REPORTS
AREA COUNCIL
The Area Office is the servant of the Annual Conference. The purposes
of the office as set forth in the Constitution are:
1. To correlate and promote the program of the boards, commissions,
committees, and other agencies;
2. To serve the Annual Conference as the Commission on Promotion
and Cultivation as required by The Discipline;
3. To correlate and promote in the Annual Conference the Quadrennial
and other emphases as ordered by the General Conference;
4. To correlate and promote any special Conference-wide program or
emphases ordered by the Annual Conference;
5. To provide staff leadership and services for the conference boards,
commissions, committees, and other agencies.
We in the Area Office want to be of service to every agency in the Annual
Conference. We ask that you call on us and let us help you when we can.
I am finishing my first year as director of the Louisiana Area Council.
We have tried to build upon the foundation laid by my predecessor, Dr. J.
Henry Bowdon. This report is for the entire Area Council staff as well as
for myself. I want to express appreciation to the staff members, K. G. Rorie,
Cecil Bland, J. C. Skinner, and Georgia Daily. The details of their work will
be included with the reports of the agencies with which each has worked
most closely.
Along with my duties as director, I have worked with several agencies,
particularly the Board of Christian Social Concerns and the Commission on
World Service and Finance.
One of the responsibilities of the Council is to serve as the Conference
Commission on Promotion and Cultivation, and the director is the executive
officer of this commission. Reverend J. E. Hearn, Conference Treasurer,
has furnished monthly financial statements which we have printed and dis-
tributed to the Bishop, District Superintendents, members of the World Service
Commission and others.
It is not the responsibility of the Area Office to initiate programs. It is
our responsibility to coordinate and promote the Conference program as
adopted by the Program Committee upon recommendation of the boards,
commissions, committees and agencies of the Conference. The members of
the Cabinet compose the Program Committee of the Council. This is the
first year under this plan, and I believe it is working out well for the Council
and the Conference. At the session of the Annual Conference, the program
for the ensuing year is presented for consideration and adoption by the An-
nual Conference.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 81
During this year, we have launched a monthly publication, SADDLE-
BAGS. The mailing list includes the ministers, lay leaders, Official Board
Chairmen, and others. The purpose of the paper is to keep the Conference
program before us.
Another innovation this year was the Convocation of Boards held in
February. The Program Committee is recommending this be continued an-
other year with some changes in the schedule.
The Area Council has worked within the bounds of the adopted budget.
We realize we have not done all we could and should have done, but each
member of the staff has done his or her best.
In behalf of all the staff members, we wish to thank Bishop Walton, the
District Superintendents, Dr. Jack Wilkes, Council President, the Council mem-
bers, and the ministers and laymen of the Conference for the cooperation and
help given us in our work.
Luman E. Douglas, Area Director
(The following resolution was adopted as part of the report.)
RESOLVED:
That each Board, Commission, Committee or Agency of the Louisiana
Annual Conference of The Methodist Church be directed to submit in writing,
not later than fifteen days prior to the announced date of the spring planning
session of the Conference Program Committee, a brief summary of respective
programs proposed for the ensuing Conference year or years and choronolog-
ically listed applicable dates recommended, to be mailed or delivered to the
Director, Louisiana Area Council, for assimilation and presentation to the
Conference Program Committee; furthermore, that the Conference Program
Committee be directed to consider all program requests and to submit, a
recommended program for the ensuing Conference year or years to the
Louisiana Area Council, said Council to adopt or amend as may be deemed
necessary, and to prepare for presentation to the Annual Conference.
BOARD OF EDUCATION
Report No. 1
Centenary College of Louisiana
The college is continuing to show many evidences of growth. The
number of full-time students in the fall was 1103, the largest since the postwar
period. The number of students living on campus was 580 which is by far
the largest in history. Additions are being built for men's housing and a
new dining room for the cafeteria. We plan to build additional women's
housing during the coming year.
82 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
Also, the faculty and library have been strengthened in numbers and
quality.
Of primary importance at Centenary is the religious commitment of the
college. The religious commitment of the college has never been more im-
portant than it is today. During this period of social change and unrest, of
international conflict, religious leaders and scholars have launched one of the
most urgent reviews of religious truth and practice in man's history. The
recent Vatican Council, the revival of lay theological discussion, the movement
of die churches toward reunion, the attempts of various groups in church
renewal, the new emphasis in the church on various forms of liturgy, the
contemporary bitter criticism of certain aspects of church life by many
scholars — all of these and other forces have combined to make this an exciting
day for the church and church-related institutions. This excitement has
reached Centenary along with most campuses. We are not alarmed by these
trends. Indeed, we believe we have the leadership to make this a time of
religious growth for our students and faculty.
The examination of religious truth always creates mental and emotional
tension. Consequently, the church college, because of its basic religious com-
mitment and its trained faculty, is the best possible place for students to deal
with matters of religious faith. We have complete confidence in the dedication
and competence of our faculty to challenge our students in religious growth.
The establishment of Sunday worship in the Brown Chapel with a large
proportion of the campus students attending is one indication of how our
students are responding to renewed campus interest in religion. Another has
been in the desire of students to hear and question persons who hold various
religious viewpoints.
The religious commitment of the college expresses itself in many ways,
through religious drama, music, movies, art, through chapel services and
Sunday worship, through student religious organizations, through courses in
the Department of Religion and Bible, through the Faculty Christian Fellow-
ship, through all the various formal and informal means that students learn
basic realities in the interaction of minds on a college campus.
BOARD OF EDUCATION
Louisiana Conference of The Methodist Church
The "New Day" in adult literature was introduced to the Conference
this year. Many pastors and laymen were trained to present this to their
districts and their local churches. The Louisiana Association of Methodist
Educators (LAME) was formed. The Fifth National Conference on Family
Life, at Chicago, was well attended by persons from Louisiana. The "New
Day" will be continued with the introduction of new youth literature in
September, 1968.
With regular news articles sent in to the Louisiana Methodist there is no
reason any of the preparations for the new adult literature should be unknown.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 83
J. C. Skinner has directed planning and programming within the Conference
and has spoken to many churches and groups as to this. Louisiana was one of
the few conferences that sent detailed plans to Nashville, which plans were
then made available to other conferences.
Youth work has proceeded vigorously, for in contrast to the other age
divisions of the Church School this division has increased in membership. All
of the conference camps and workshops were well attended, with increases
over the past year. The MYFund has been emphasized and new plans for its
collection have been instituted.
The executive secretary visited each district last Fall to become acquainted
with the children's worker of that district. Vacation Church School Institutes
have been held and a Conference-wide Workshop is planned for February 22-
24, 1968, at Bunkie, Louisiana.
There is a planned study of the working relationship between the Board
of Education and the Commission on Higher Education. This should be
extremely helpful in furnishing guidance to the problem of raising money for
Student Work.
Ministers and Directors of Christian Education and Ministers and Directors
of Music have been recertified this year, along with training programs being
held for ministers and laymen. A recreational workshop for the conference
will be held October 20-22, 1967, at Camp Istrouma. An urgent note is here
sounded! Your Conference Board of Education is almost wholly dependent
on the Christian Education Sunday (Rally Day) Offering. Determine now
that your church will raise its Rally Day Offering in full.
It is as simple, and tragic, as the figures prove. Church School at-
tendance and enrollment is decreasing in the Louisiana Conference. The
Board of Education, with the Board of Evangelism, has a program to arrest
this decline. We pray for its success.
Your executive secretary has been "up and about" as much as time and
finances would permit. Attendance at youth camps and conferences, rallies,
leadership schools and visits in districts, local churches and preacher's meetings
aided him in presenting the cause of Christian Education.
It has been my privilege to learn of this office and to work under the
direction of the Board of Education and of the Area Council. Especially do I
appreciate the leadership of Bishop Walton and of Dr. Luman Douglas.
The help and guidance of the President of the Board, Dr. Ben Oliphint,
is especially singled out for recognition.
J. C. Skinner
1967-1968
SPECIAL EMPHASIS IN CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
"New Life in the Church"
The Board of Education and the Board of Evangelism join hands in a
cooperate endeavor to offer an effective means to bring new life to our
84 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
churches through a concentrated program of church school enlistment, en-
richment, and enrollment.
We recommend that five special areas of emphasis be developed and
continued in all the churches of the Louisiana Conference:
I. Church School Enrollment:
In discovering where we are, let us begin with perfecting our church
school rolls. During the first three months of our conference year let
us examine closely every class enrollment and be sure where we stand
as we report our total enrollment. Maintain a constituency roll for each
church school class enrolling those who have attended four times.
II. Church School Evangelism:
The objective of the Church School is to help persons to an awareness
of, and growth in their understanding of God, especially His redeeming
love in Jesus Christ, that they may respond in faith and love. The ful-
fillment of this objective is possible only when part of that response
is to seek ways and means of gathering persons into teaching situations
and to provide an environment that is physically as well as spiritually
helpful to the students' understanding and growth.
To implement these objectives we recommend:
A. That a program be developed under the cooperative leadership of
the Conference Board of Education and Conference Board of
Evangelism.
B. That each local church be urged to develop its own program of
Church School Evangelism under the direction of the Commissions
on Education and Evangelism. The administration of the local
church program could be placed under the leadership of a special
committee composed of a few members of the two commissions.
While each local church should develop and adopt the methods and
plans they feel will be most fruitful for them, it is suggested that
apart from lesson material, preparation and presentation, serious
consideration be given to the following possibilities.
Discovery of prospects
Search membership rolls of church and all church organizations; conduct
community survey; take roll of worship service; check community lists
such as enrollments in school and public utility customers; check new
births in community for Nursery home roll. Special effort should be
made to locate the shut-ins for Home Membership roll.
Visitation of Prospects
While all Church School members should be taught and encouraged to
visit the prospective members and delinquent members, specific com-
mittees should be formed to have specific responsibility for visiting in
these areas.
Follow up every absence
Contact immediately; preferably by personal visit from members of
class and phone calls.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 85
Attack causes of absence
Some typical causes of absences are lack of hospitality; inadequate social
activities; no feeling of responsibility; poor teaching; unattractive sur-
roundings; lack of purpose.
C. That the Annual Conference adopt a goal of 10% net increase in
Church School membership and attendance. Progress reports should
be made to the Conference Executive Secretary of Education by
January 1, 1968 and April 1, 1968.
III. Teaching the Teachers and Other Church School Leaders:
Christian Education has the responsibility to introduce persons into the
life and mission of the Community of Christian faith, an introduction
that will involve the person in depth. The Bible must play a funda-
mental role.
The pastor of a local church should prepare himself to teach the teachers
of the Church School. The need is not so great for techniques as it is
for a deeper experience of the Christian faith. Each pastor has the re-
sponsibility of providing the situations through which God can speak to
the teachers. The pastor must "Teach the Teachers".
Some suggested ways this can be done:
A. A quarterly meeting of all Church School teachers and workers
under the teaching leadership of the pastor for the purpose of
serious study and discussion. This would mean meeting four times
during the year with all the workers.
Some possible areas of study under the leadership of the pastors are:
1. The Bible
2. The nature and history of the church
3. The nature of the Christian Life
4. Christian worship
5. Christian theology
6. Stewardship and Service
Some possible aids for study with freedom allowed for each pastor to
select that which best fits his situation:
1. Special speakers
2. Panel discussions
3. Current theological books
4. Audio-visual aids
B. Another suggested way to teach the teachers would be for the
pastor to meet once each quarter with the teachers and other leaders
of each Division and assist them in the preparation of their lessons
for the coming quarter, using the actual lesson plans and litera-
ture for the coming quarter.
In cities where it is possible for teachers of several churches to
meet together more often, a weekly or monthly meeting can be
86 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
arranged with proper leadership and the lesson for the following
period could be discussed and adequate preparation made.
IV. The Small Study Groups:
Many churches have discovered the value of small groups meeting on
Sunday or at other times to study and discuss the Bible or other Christian
books under competent leadership. Such groups usually meet for longer
periods of time than a Sunday School class. The groups are also small
in size, so that each member of the group can participate in the discus-
sion. The members of the groups are usually persons who are interested
in a detailed study and are willing to devote extra time in preparation
for the study group.
Our goal is to organize at least one of these adult study groups in each
charge during this year. The organization and enrollment of this group
should be reported in our progress report to the Executive Secretary.
V. Adult Sunday School Classes:
Large numbers of our adults in Sunday School classes can be involved
in Christian study at a deeper level. Many churches have begun en-
riched programs for adults. We recommend that these programs be
continued and enlarged.
While we appreciate much of the work that is being accomplished in
adult Sunday School classes, more serious study must be attempted.
Many thoughtful people are not attending our Sunday School classes
because of the shallowness of the teaching. The Sunday School class
should devote itself wholeheartedly to two areas:
1. Serious Study
2. Christian Fellowship
Worship is the rightful function of the service of worship in the sanctuary
and every student must be encouraged to share fellowship and study in
the Sunday School class, and Christian worship in the sanctuary. All
available time should be devoted in the Sunday School class to fellow-
ship and serious study.
We recommend that each local church through the Commission on
Education, review carefully its adult classes, with the aim of providing
opportunities for more serious study.
BOARD OF EDUCATION
Goals and Recommendations
That each church in the Conference observe Christian Education Sunday
with an offering.
A renewed effort to increase enrollment in Church School; to carry on
local church leadership training, and to prepare for and hold city-wide, sub-

district, or even district leadership training schools in every district. Renewal
of certification, where courses have changed, and new certification for more
leaders in local churches.

BOARD OF EVANGELISM
Your Board of Evangelism wishes to express appreciation for the fine
leadership given to the conference program of evangelism this last year in
each of the Districts by the District Superintendents and District Secretaries of
Evangelism. We have been receiving very good reports concerning the re-
sults of the program.
During this coming year, we enter the fourth phase of the quadrennial
program which we presented to the Annual Conference at the beginning of
this quadrennium. You will remember that the first phase was called "A Holy
Season of Love". In this phase, we endeavored to strengthen the ties of love
and fellowship among the members of each local congregation. Materials
for this program have been used each year since that time by some of our
churches. They are still available at the Area Office.
The second phase was called "A Mission to Members". In this phase we
sought to reactivate inactive members. Some have worked a continuation of
this program with the visitation evangelism program for new members this
year.
The third phase was called "Our Business Is People". In this we have
attempted to stir entire congregations to realize that the mission of every
Christian is to work and pray that Christ's will be done on earth as it is in
heaven. And that the great commission to go and make disciples of all
people was given not only to the early Christians, but to us also.
The fourth phase which we have proposed for this year is that of
simultaneous revivals with an exchange of ministers within the conference.
We have two purposes in proposing this phase. One is that we believe that
it will make it possible for every church to have a preaching mission during
the year. We are asking that every minister give his time for one week be-
ginning on a Sunday night and extending through Friday night with the
local churches having to pay only for his travel and entertainment. Thus,
even the smallest church would be able to afford to have a revival. Secondly,
we believe that there is an advantage in all of the churches of a given area
having special meetings at the same time. Publicity will be easier and the
fact that we are doing something together makes us work with greater
enthusiasm.
We propose that these revivals be held simultaneously in two districts
at a time. And that the Ruston and Shreveport Districts and the Monroe and
Alexandria Districts be paired together for revivals in the fall. And that the
Lake Charles and Lafayette Districts and the New Orleans and Baton Rouge
Districts be paired together for revivals in the spring. Each minister and local
88 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
Commission on Membership and Evangelism will select the minister for their
revival from among the ministers of other Districts who are not having their
meetings at the time. If there are churches who have arranged for their week
of preaching, we would expect them to carry out their plans as they have
originally set them. Or if there are churches who would like to bring in
ministers from outside of the conference, this would be up to the Minister and
local Congregation. We propose that each District set up a Committee work-
ing under the leadership of the District Superintendent within the first month
after the Annual Conference to coordinate the revival program within the
district. Revival dates set by the Conference Program Committee are as
follows:
Alexandria and Monroe Districts — October 8-13, 1967
Ruston and Shreveport Districts — November 5-10, 1967
Lafayette and Lake Charles Districts — February 25-March 1, 1968
Baton Rouge and New Orleans Districts — March 24-29, 1968
It is strongly urged that every pastor in the Louisiana Conference give
special consideration to the recommended simultaneous revival dates for his
district and plan to hold services in at least one church in his care; that each
pastor prepare a prospect list and plan a diligent visitation of these persons;
that evening services be the basic plan, and that additional services or activi-
ties be planned only after consultation with the visiting minister; that each
pastor be required to make a report of revival activity in his church to the
district superintendent, naming the evangelist, the dates of his services, the
number of services conducted and the attendance at each, offerings received,
and members receivd by profession of faith, transfer or reinstatement; and
that no honorarium be paid to or gifts accepted by a visiting minister, except
that expenses of seven cents per mile traveled and necessary entertainment
shall be provided by the host church.
The Spiritual Life Retreat for ministers will be held this year on
September 19 and 20 with Dr. lordan Grooms of the Polk Street Methodist
Church in Amarillo, Texas as speaker.
There will be an Evangelism Seminar at Camp Istrouma on January 16
and 17. The purpose of this seminar is to give help to any minister who
would like to strengthen the program of Evangelism in his local Church.
We wish to call your attention to the display of materials from the
General Board of Evangelism in the Student Union Building. We urge each
local church to make the books from Tidings available to their congregations.
Respectfully submitted,
Merlin W. Merrill
BOARD OF CHRISTIAN SOCIAL CONCERNS
The Board held meetings in Alexandria, Louisiana, on November 1, 1966,
and February 23-24, 1967.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 89
The Basic Question of the cooperative social action program for the
Board for the third year of the quadrennium is: "How should the church
relate to government?" The Selected Issues for Projects and Actions were
Public Policy on Education and Mental Health. The Joint Study proposed
was "Evangelical Faith and Pluralistic Society (Church - State Study)".
Division of Peace and World Order
The Division of Peace and World Order makes the following recom-
mendations:
1. That each local church observe World Order Sunday, October 22.
2. That the afternoon of World Order Sunday be observed as a Day for
Prayer for Peace; churches are urged to remain open, with literature
concerning World understanding available, that members may express
their concern for world order through meditation and prayer.
3. That in each local church or district studies be undertaken concerning
some aspect of world order. The following topics are suggested:
a. China: It's Past and Present.
b. Vietnam: What is the Christian Attitude?
c. Causes of world unrest; strategies for world peace.
d. India's Place Among the World Nation.
Division of Human Relations and Economic Affairs
The Division recommends the following for 1967-68:
(1) That a Family Life Conference be held; that all the boards of the
conference who are interested be involved; that the Area Council appoint
an inter-board committee to implement this conference.
The Division suggests that the conference be held the last weekend in
April, 1968, and that the program format and attendance plans follow that of
the National Family Life Conference of 1966.
(2) Since concern of human rights is basic to the development of a better
and more peaceful order among nations, the Division calls attention to the
fact that 1968 is the 20th anniversary of the Covenants on the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights; that 1968 has been designated by the U.N. as
"International Human Rights Year."
Since the United States is one of only 12 nations that has not ratified the
covenants, we recommend the Congress of the United States take steps to do
so.
(3) The Division recommends that the Journal of the Annual Conference
include the names and addresses of the pastors of the Louisiana Conference,
Central Jurisdiction.
(4) The Division includes in this report information concerning some
effective work in the area of race relations that has been done by Methodists
in Louisiana, with the hope that these plans will give guidance to other groups.
90 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
a. A Methodist Church made the educational building available for a
pre-school Head Start program. The students and teachers were on
an integrated basis.
b. An Annual Inter-Jurisdictional Youth Rally was sponsored by lay
leaders and others with speakers from the Central Jurisdiction and
the South Central Jurisdiction.
c. Some district superintendents of both jurisdictions meet together
and have worked co-operatively in planning and conducting meetings.
d. One laboratory and training school had over 20 participants from the
Central Jurisdiction.
e. One district has had several meetings of laymen and ministers from
both jurisdictions.
f. A Poverty Seminar held by a Central Jurisdiction church had a small
group attend from the South Central Jurisdiction.
Division of Alcohol and General Welfare
The Division makes the following recommendations:
1. That church and school groups schedule representatives of the Louisi-
ana Moral and Civic Foundation for speaking appearances and work-
shops whenever possible.
2. District directors and local church commissions on Christian Social
Concerns give consideration and study to the areas of Crime and
Gambling in 1968, with special attention toward the influence and
involvement of youth in these areas.
3. Ministers' groups and the leadership of the church should engage in
informative discussions concerning the current emphasis in our culture
on the New Morality, so as to be in a position to give enlightened
counsel and direction to our people in the ethical dilemmas of our
age.

COMMISSION ON CHRISTIAN VOCATIONS
The Conference Commission on Christian Vocations has enjoyed one of
its most successful years. The Commission has had splendid response from
the youth and adults of our Conference. The ministry of the church has
been presented in a new and exciting manner through Conference and District
Convocations.
The Conference Commission, in conjunction with many of the Boards
and Agencies of the Conference, conducted a Vocations Convocation at Camp
Istrouma on January 14 and 15 where there was overwhelming response. The
Commission was delighted to work with the Boards and Agencies of the
Conference in this endeavor, for it is felt that the area of recruitment for
church related occupations is not confined to one group but to every group
within the structure of the church.
The Monroe, Ruston, and Shreveport Districts held a Tri-District Con-
vocation on Christian Vocations on April 21 and 22 at Caney Lake.
The files for the Commission on Christian Vocations have been worked
diligently and faithfully by Miss LuDell Jeffers. Through her work every
person who has shown an interest in a church related occupation has been
contacted regarding their interest.
The Commission is concerned with the whole range of Christian vocations
from recruiting young men and women to fill places of service in the church
to conserving those lives that are now engaged in church related occupations.
It is apparent that the Louisiana Annual Conference must be equally diligent
in maintaining a strong sense of vocational security in its ministers, as it is
in recruiting new people. A cursory examination of the Conference Journal
for the year 1956-1966 will show that while the number of Methodist in Lou-
isiana has increased more than 11,000, there has been a net gain of only 7
ministers. Since 1964 there has been a net loss of 17 ministers in the
Conference.
We feel that these facts warrant our attention and examination. We need
to answer more adequately the question "Why do men leave the Conference
for reasons other than retirement?" Toward the conservation of our present
vocational commitments we propose that a detailed study be made by a
special committee to be known as the "Study Committee on the Ministry for
the Louisiana Annual Conference".
The Commitee will be composed of the following:
(1) Chairman of the Board of Ministerial Training and Qualifications
(2) Member of the Cabinet, to be chosen by the Cabinet
(3) Conference Lay Leader
(4) Chairman of the Conference Commission on Christian Vocations
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 95
(5) Persons to be appointed by the Bishop upon recommendation by the
Commission of Christian Vocations.
To the committee we suggest these areas of concern.
(1) Why men leave the ministry after having been in service for several
years?
(2) Why men leave the Louisiana Annual Conference for other
conferences?
(3) What can be done regarding the minister's disappointments, disillus-
ionment, and dissatisfaction, and how can the minister be given more
adequate pastoral care?
(4) What can be done to encourage the committee to continue their
pursuit of a church-related occupation?
These areas of concern do not represent the full problem; therefore, we
submit these ideas for development and expansion by the committee.
Upon completion of the study, the Committee will report to the Cabinet,
The Board of Ministerial Training, and Qualifications, and the Commission on
Christian Vocations.

DEACONESS BOARD
A recent brochure entitled "The Methodist Deaconess" began: "The
OFFICE OF DEACONESS in the Methodist Church provides the opportunity
for lay women to participate creatively as an enabler and as an agent of
change in the mission to which God calls the Church in contemporary
society".
In response to the duties and privileges of this office there are deaconesses
now serving in the Louisiana Conference in the areas of administration, teach-
ing, social work, nursing and Christian education. These persons are in
situations "where the action is". This year the members of the Board have
served in personal counseling, international affair discussion, as resource per-
sons in vocational institutes, as camp counselors, and numerous other places
where persons are challenged to witness to the Christian gospel in action and
work. We are fortunate to have Mrs. Charles Giessen serving as a member
of the South Central Jurisdiction Deaconess Board.
At the Annual Board meeting, Miss Betsy Ewing, Executive Secretary of
the Commission on Deaconess Work, of the National Division of the General
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 97
Board of Missions shared with the Conference Board some ideas and decisions
confronting the General Conference committee on the Lay Order for Methodist
Workers. She also challenged us anew with the task of a Conference board.
Two major changes in the by-laws governing the Louisiana Conference
Deaconess Board were made at the meeting:
First, in recognition of the fact that the Home Missionaries working in
Louisiana have no tie to the Louisiana Conference, the board included them
as full members.
Secondly: All deaconesses of the Central Jurisdiction and the head of
the employing agency in which they serve, in the geographical bounds of
the South Central Jurisdiction Louisiana Conference, are full members of the
Deaconess Board. These changes were made in consultation with the dea-
conesses of the Central Jurisdiction and the home missionaries.
The major concern of the Conference Board for the coming year is to
interpret the challenge of the deaconesses relationship to the Church. The
Board is especially anxious to work closely with the Conference Commission
on Christian Vocations in the work they are doing.
We are hapy to announce that at the April meeting of the Joint Com-
mittee on Missionary Personnel, Miss Judith Mayo, a member of First Meth-
odist Church, Lake Charles, became an accepted candidate for the deaconess
relationship pending the completion of her educational requirements. Miss
Mayo will enter Scarritt College this fall as a candidate for a Master's Degree
in Christian Education.

Norma Garlington
Chairman of Louisiana Conference

DISTRICT CONFERENCE RECORDS
We, your Committee on District Conference Records, wish to report that
the records of the several District Conferences were before us and carefully
examined. They are all neatly and accurately kept.
We wish to commend the District Superintendents and the District Con-

HOSPITALS AND HOMES
Report of the Board
In the concept of The Church as a "servant community" the Conference
Board of Hospitals and Homes stands in a strategic position. The Ministry
of Health and Welfare is one of the many avenues of service in which the
Church is ever seeking ways to serve the present age.
98 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
The paradox of the Church is that it must be both ancient and contemp-
orary. Rooted in the truth of God that is timeless, it must make relevant
that truth to Contemporary Man. We must at once hold to the timeless
while making it timely. We must not only proclaim the Gospel, we must
demonstrate it. It is increasingly needful that the Church spend more time
on deeds and less on debate. In the New English Bible lohn is represented
as saying "Love must not be a matter of words or talk, it must be genuine
and show itself in action". (I lohn 3:18)
It is not enough for us to minister through our Institutions of Health and
Welfare, as fine as that is. We need to get the local church involved in its
own community.
It is hoped that every local Hospitals and Homes Steward will become
an informed and active member of the Official Board in leading its church
into vital participation in a wider Ministry of Service.
Our Board will sponsor a retreat at Camp Brewer for members of the
Pineville Colony for the mentally ill, under the guidance of Rev. Earl
Emmerich and Rev. Roland Friedrich.
We will sponsor a Workshop for Part-time Chaplains, to be held at
Central Louisiana Hospital, October 17th. We cannot urge too strongly the
participation of every Part-time Chaplain in this most important endeavor.
We suggest that the appointment as Part-time Chaplain carry with it the
necessity of this training.
We hope for closer planning with the Conference Board of Christian
Social Concerns in areas of common interest.
We have named Rev. Kenneth McDowell as chairman of a committee to
continue studies on the need for a home for the aging.
We have set up a prison Chaplaincy, believing that here is a long neg-
lected field of Christian Witness and Service.
There were 5 from our Conference who attended the first Convocation on
Theology and Medicine held in Rochester, Minnesota, and jointly sponsored
by the General Boards of Hospitals and Homes and Christian Social Concerns.
The reports from those attending attest to its exciting timeliness.
Each church is urged to send its Hospital Steward to the Workshop at
Mt. Sequoyah, July 21 - 23. Unless local Stewards become not only aware
of their tasks but motivated to perform them the greatest function of the work
of Health and Welfare will die in the borning.
Our Board is related closely to our Conference Institutions of Health
and Welfare. We do not supervise them, but give help and support to their
ministry. The reports of these individual Institutions are included as a
part of that of the Board of Hospitals and Homes.
We have had the reports of the Administrators of the Conference Institu-
tions before our Board and have reviewed this work for this year. Their
individual reports follow.

I. GLENWOOD HOSPITAL
During the past fiscal year Glenwood Hospital admitted a total of 6,673
patients, of which 532 were newborns. Glenwood Hospital rendered 30,584
days of patient care to the community.
We performed 2,338 surgical procedures. The average daily census
for the year was 86.
4,301 patients were seen in our emergency room, and 5,347 outpatients
used our x-ray and laboratory facilities.
We spent $1,500,000.00 for salaries, services and supplies during the
year.
Glenwood Hospital employs 290 employees.
The Dietary Department served 180,000 meals.
Glenwood Hospital has been accredited by the Joint Commission on
Accreditation of Hospitals since its first survey in 1963.
The $1,500,000.00 construction program, adding two additional floors,
has been underway since the first of January. This addition will bring our
capacity up to 178 beds.
We at Glenwood would like to take this opportunity to thank you for
your help over the years. We feel rather unique bringing our report to the
annual conference because we are not asking for any monetary support, and
I am not up for reappointment that I know of.
E. D. Singleton, Administrator
II. THE METHODIST HOME HOSPITAL
The message of the Methodist Home Hospital has been and continues
to be, "There is a God who cares and who has servants who care — Louisiana

One of the great needs of the Home is the need for more adoptive parents,
so that we may render service to more girls who need us so very much — we
have to turn girls away because of the lack of adoptive parents. The Board
of the Home Hospital made the adoptive requirements more flexible in order
to enlist more prospective adoptive couples.
Jack H. Midyett, Superintendent

III. REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
OF THE LOUISIANA METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME
Your Board of the Methodist Children's Home is happy to report to you
a good year of work by a dedicated staff directed by Reverend Harry Ezell
and staff. The home is operating to capacity. We reported to you last
year that a new cottage was in the making. This has been made possible
without calling on the conference for capital outlay.
For the maintenance of the home and care of the children, we are
dependent on the churches of the conference.
October 15, 1967, will be a highlight for the home. This occasion will
be Methodist Hospital and Homes Steward's Day. At this time Bishop Walton
will dedicate the new cottage.
The Board of Directors respectfully requests affirmative action by the
Annual Conference and Presiding Bishop on the following items:
1. Reappointment of Reverend Harry E. Ezell as Superintendent.
2. Election to the Board of Directors for a three year term the following:
W. A. J. Lewis, Reverend Fred Flurry, J. C. Ritchie, L. D. McCehee,
Mrs. L. B. Kilpatrick.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 101
3. Continued observance by the churches of our conference of the free
will offering days for the Home, which days are Easter Sunday in
the Spring and Harvest Day in the Fall, this year would be
October 15, 1967.
4. Ratify a Board action on May 2, 1967, a motion by Mr. Billy Lewis,
seconded by Dr. Keith Mason that a certain parcel of land belonging
to the Methodist Orphanage be sold for $6,000.00 to the Ruston
District Board of Missions for a new Methodist church parsonage.
This was passed unanimously by the Board.
5. Reference Conference rules appearing in the Journal of the Louisiana
Conference. The paragraph labeled quadrennial Orphanage Board
reads as follows:
A Conference Orphanage Board composed of one lay member for
each District and an equal number of clerical members shall be
elected by the first session following the general Conference, to
serve ensuing quadrennium.
This rule has never functioned and was not known to exist until this
year. We respectfully request that this paragraph be deleted from Conference
rules.
Respectfully submitted,

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT
METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME
To take a child whose home life has been shattered; to help that child
both restore and increase his faith in God, in man, in himself; to help that
child develop such a sense of self-worth that he may become a stable,
Christian, adult; this is our task.
To fulfill that task we need workers, fine, dedicated, Christian workers
who will see in every child, under all circumstances, a child of God. To
fulfill that task we must train people in the special understandings and skills
required under these difficult circumstances. To fulfill that task we must
provide the program of care demanded by such special circumstances. To
rulfill that task we must secure adequate financial support enabling us to pay
adequate salaries, provide reasonable working conditions, meet a highly com-
petitive market for skilled workers, and underwrite the costs of necessary
program.
During the year March 1, 1966 to March 1, 1967:
1. We averaged approximately 110 boys and girls in care. We actually
cared for many more since a number left, a number of new ones
came in.
102 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
2. Operating expenditures were $189,917.
3. Operating income was:
a. From the churches: $148,541.
b. All other sources: $20,221.
c. Total operating income: $168,762.
4. Total operating deficit: $21,155.
We need full support of operating budgets. We must face, realistically,
the financial pressures which force ever increasing expenditures due to rising
costs of living. We need special help from those individuals who would
give to help build, or help furnish, the necessary new cottages.
Sincerely yours,
Harry E. Ezell
Superintendent

RETIRED MINISTERS HOMES BOARD REPORT
We regret to report this past year we did not make our goal. We hoped
to raise $12,500.00 which is the sum necessary to build a house on lots we
own. At the moment we do not have enough money to complete a house,
we do have the lots. We hope this shortage will be made up in 1967-68.
Your Committee thinks we should be ready at all times to build at least
two houses each year. Your Ministers are not getting younger. The usual
time required to build a home is 60 to 90 days. To know that a home or
an apartment is available in case of an emergency would be very comforting.
Check the financial report, which will be published in our Louisiana
Methodist very soon, and see what your church is reported as having raised
this past year, then strive to increase it. If your church gave nothing, then
determine that you will have your church in the giving list this coming
conference year.
The APARTMENT IDEA is meeting a great need for our widows and
a temporary landing place for couples, and it is evident that we will need
additional apartments within a few years. With this fact before our recent
Board meeting and also the fact that the cash balance brought forward from
last years general building fund, amounting to $5,971.79, was originally given
for the building of the MEMORIAL BUILDING, it was decided to continue
this MEMORIAL FUND by authorizing the Treasurer to transfer this balance
104 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
into a RESERVE MEMORIAL FUND and from year to year, add to this all
receipts coming in which are EAR MARKED as MEMORIALS. This will, to
a large extent, help us to be ready to meet the need when more apartments
are needed.
At present we have one apartment, large enough for a couple or can
be used as a single, vacant, and we have the lovely, fully furnished apartment
open for temporary use by any minister and his wife or a single.
It was decided, at our recent Board meeting, that all applications for
apartments or homes should be made through the Superintendent of Property,
Reverend James B. Grambling, 3728 Judson Street, Shreveport, Louisiana who
will file same in order and communicate with the applicant but will not
divulge the information to anyone until his retirement is announced. By
having these advanced requests for home in hand it will assist the Board in
determining when and where the next home is needed.
The only change made in those occupying homes are: Rev. and Mrs.
E. Lee McKay have moved into the home at 3726 Judson, previously occupied
by Mrs. B. D. Watson who has moved to Oklahoma. Reverend and Mrs.
Paul Durbin, who found it necessary to be released from his work in Logans-
port is now living in the four room duplex in Ruston.
A full report in the MAINTENANCE of all homes has been filed with
die Board, which includes a number of small repairs and some painting.
Two or three of the homes will undergo paint jobs this summer.
We are fortunate indeed in having Reverend John Gieck and Reverend
Lee McKay living in our homes for they are wonderful helpers in keeping
the Ruston property in excellent condition. It looks like a well kept park and
flower garden. We are also indebted to the maintenance department of the
Children's Home for keeping the section of the property which we do not use
in such good condition.
Up to the writing of this report we have received a total of $10,726.24.
Of this total receipts $640.00 was EAR MARKED as MEMORIALS and has
been transferred to the MEMORIAL account, leaving a balance in the General
Building Fund of $10,086.24.
The month of November is RETIRED MINISTERS HOMES MONTH
and we do hope that every pastor will give his loyal support to this project
of our CONFERENCE. We also earnestly urge to Commission on World
Service and Finance to give consideration to our needs for LOCAL BOARD
OPERATING EXPENSE and grant us some financial help with these items.

JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 105
LAY ACTIVITIES AND 1000 CLUB
By Tom H. Matheny, Conference Lay Leader
I will only emphasize certain matters which are contained in more detail
in the Pre-Conference Report.
The Conference Board of Lay Activities will continue to emphasize its
five year program for stewardship cultivation in the Louisiana Annual Con-
ference which was outlined in detail in the Pre-Conference Reports of 1965.
A major area of emphasis in the coming year will be a re-organization of
Methodist Men's groups. This is being done under the leadership of the
General Board of Lay Activities all over Methodism, and a workshop for
leadership in the field of Methodist Men will be held on July 8 and 9, in
Alexandria and Baton Rouge, respectively.
Our Committee on Promotional Activities primarily has the responsibility
of planning our annual Laymen's Retreat at Centenary College, which will
be held on July 29-30, this year. Our speaker for our Laymen's Retreat this
year will be Mr. Ernie Logan, who is an outstanding layman and will be a
rich source of inspiration to those who are there. In addition, we are having
a Lay School of Theology, staffed by ten outstanding faculty members. This
year we are again making a special emphasis on inviting the ministers as well
as the young men from the senior high schools and Wesley Foundations.
Every church is urged to send its minister and its young people to these
programs at the Laymen's Retreat in order to increase the dialogue and
communication between these groups.
The Conference Board of Lay Activities has this year endorsed a recom-
mendation that some centralized program of financing for Wesley Foundations
be established. It is the feeling of the Conference Board of Lay Activities
that there has not been enough financial support for the Methodist Student
Movement in this conference. For that matter, we do not believe there
has been enough support of other types for the Methodist Student Movement.
We wish to do everything possible to encourage this work which is so out-
standing in the majority of our Wesley Foundations.
Two matters of controversy at this Annual Conference have been the
resolutions concerning the merger with the EUB's and the resolution con-
cerning the abolition of the Central Jurisdiction. The Conference Board of
Lay Activities has already been very active in fulfilling its responsibility of
teaching and learning in these fields. We have long had a Committee on
Ecumenical Affairs and have invited members of the Evangelical United
Brethren to attend our meetings and participate in the activities of the
Conference Board of Lay Activities. In addition, we have sent delegates to
the National Conference on Ecumenical Affairs in Cincinnati, Ohio, March 9-
10 of this year, where training was given for new leadership in this field
for the laity of the conference.
In addition, members of the Conference Board of Lay Activities are en-
gaging in dialogue with the laity of the Central Jurisdiction in order that tliere
might be more communication and unity between these groups. At our last
106 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
meeting of the Conference Board of Lay Activities, a motion was made and
unanimously passed that we invite the Conference Lay Leader of the Central
Jurisdiction in Louisiana, together with representatives of his board, to our next
meeting of the Conference Board of Lay Activities. In addition to this, by
virtue of my position as a member of the General Board of Lay Activities,
I am a member of the Conference Board of Lay Activities of the Central
Jurisdiction in Louisiana, and have high hopes to be able to use this position
to increase communication and dialogue between the laymen of both
jurisdictions.
The years ahead are going to be difficult ones for the laymen of
Methodism. There will be many adjustments that will have to be made.
There will be many sacrifices that will have to be made. However, the
laity of the Louisiana Annual Conference wish to give assurance that they
stand ready to make the adjustments and sacrifices that are necessary. We
know our task as a part of the holy priesthood. We intend to do our task.
We will support the church - for we are the church.
I now place before the Conference the nominations for District Lay
Leaders and Associate District Lay Leaders made by the District Superin-
tendents and the Conference Lay Leader, and the nomination for Conference
Lay Leader.
Respectfully submitted,
Conference Board of Lay Activities
Tom H. Matheny, Conference Lay Leader
MINIMUM SALARIES AND SUSTENTATION

supplied a questionnaire which must be properly filled out and re-
turned to the Secretary of the Commission, Rev. Marvin H. Corley,
before payments may be authorized.
II. THE SUSTENTATION FUND
The Commission has been charged with the responsibility by the Louisiana
Annual Conference of administering the Sustentation Fund as provided
for in paragraph 828 of the 1964 Discipline of The Methodist Church
and in accordance with provisions of the Discipline, we your Commission
make the following recommendations:
1. That each effective minister of the Louisiana Annual Conference
be assessed an amount equal to one-half of one per cent of the
minister's base salary for 1967-68, to be paid to the Sustentation
Fund.
2. That this fund be used to provide for emergency benefit aid to
the ministers of the Louisiana Annual Conference who may be
in special need.
3. That each pastor and church cooperate in providing an adequate
hospitalization insurance program for family protection.
108 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
4. That the Commission will consider cases only upon recom-
mendation of the Cabinet.
Ira W. Flowers, Chairman
Marvin H. Corley, Secretary
HISTORICAL COMMISSION
I. Centenary College as the historical depository has:
a. A complete file of all printed Conference Annuals 1847-1966.
b. Broken files of Annual Conference reports 1847-1966, detailed and
organized.
c. Complete files of M. E. Church, South, Disciplines.
d. Numerous parchments of Louisiana Methodist Ministers.
e. Approximately 20 Conference canon law cases, primarily disciplinary.
f. Several bound volumes of Louisiana Conferences, quarterly and dis-
trict, 1870-1880.
These files of invaluable historical sources are available for research
purposes to Conference members in the Centenary College Library Cline
Room.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Commission recommends that during the Conference Year, 1967, each
Louisiana Methodist Church report on historical holdings to the Historical
Commission. Many missing records of the 19th Century have been filed with
local churches and should be deposited in the fireproof vault at Centenary,
for research purposes. Many early local church records and prepared histories
should also be deposited.
We recommend that the Conference adopt a resolution expressing our
appreciation to the Shreveport Junior League for the clerical assistance to
the Library staff for cataloging and indexing records of Centenary College
and Louisiana Methodism.
The Historical Commission, with support of the Cabinet, recommends
the adoption of the following Resolution by the Annual Conference:
(1) That immediately following Annual Conference, each minister re-
spond to a questionnaire prepared by Dr. Lowrey of Centenary College
Faculty, concerning his local church's records and history.
(2) That Dr. Lowrey, representing the Historical Commission, be per-
mitted to present the importance of this work at each District Conference
for the ensuing year.

PUBLIC RELATIONS AND METHODIST INFORMATION
Report of Commission
The function of the Commission of Public Relations and Methodist In-
formation is to gather news of public interest concerning Methodist activities
and opinion and disseminate it through the secular press, the religious press,
radio, television, and other legitimate media of public information. This report
reflects the efforts of this commission to carry out its function during the
conference year.
The commission held a workshop for commission members and district
directors in Alexandria, Louisiana, on Saturday, October 22, 1966. The re-
source persons were Rev. Gene Carroll, Director of Methodist Information and
TRAFCO in the Atlanta Area and Editor of The Georgia Methodist, Dr.
Alfred Knox, Editor of the Louisiana Methodist, and Miss Georgia M. Daily,
the Louisiana Area Director of Methodist Information.
One result of this challenging workshop was the realization of the need
for closer co-operation between and a closer coordination of the activities of
the various boards, commissions, and agencies charged with responsibilities
in the area of news dissemination within the conference. A preliminary and
fruitful discussion was held at the Convocation of Boards in Alexandria on
February 24, 1967, with representatives of the Commission on Public Relations
and Methodist Information, the Louisiana Methodist, the Christian Service
Times of the Woman's Society of Christian Service, and Centenary College.
Further discussions and programs will be pursued.
The Commission held its meeting at the above Convocation of Boards.
Since the Commission is a service, and not a program, commission, the
majority of the work of the commission was conducted through its able and
efficient director, Miss Georgia Daily. During the past conference year, the
director covered news events of conference activities across the entire state^
as well as playing a major role in connection with such events as Founders
Day at Business Girls Inn, in Shreveport, and Sager-Brown School in Baldwin.
In addition, the director performed her usual duties, consisting of weekly
news stories and features for the Louisiana Methodist, news releases for
boards and agencies, the elaboration of stories from other Methodist Informa-
tion offices and general boards, such as the Board of Missions, and the
promotion of activities involving other area office staff members.
The director and the commission expresses its appreciation for the co-
operation of the news media of the State of Louisiana in the work of this
commission during the conference year.
The Commission makes the following recommendations concerning its
future program:
1. The commission recommends that requests from conference agencies
for news coverage of their activities by the Director of Methodist
Information be channeled through the staff member of the area
council assigned to the particular agency or board involved, in ac-
cordance with the guidelines adopted by the commission.
110 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
2. The commission recommends a Methodist Information workshop in
each district of the conference each conference year and solicits the
co-operation of the District Superintendents, the District Directors of
Methodist Information, and the Program Committee in scheduling
these workshops.
3. The commission recommends the continuation of efforts to co-
ordinate the activities of the various news media of the Methodist
Church in the Louisiana Conference, with a view of closer co-opera-
tion between the various boards, commissions, and agencies charged
with responsibilities in this area and a closer coordination of their
activities, hopefully to the end that all of their programs will be more
fruitful.

BOARD OF MISSIONS
Report I-A
"The supreme aim of missions is to make the Lord Jesus Christ known
to all peoples in all lands as their divine Savior, to persuade them to become
his disciples, and to gather these disciples into Christian churches; to enlist
them in the building of the kingdom of God; to co-operate with these churches;
to promote world Christian fellowship; and to bring to bear on all human
life the spirit and principles of Christ." (The Discipline, Par. 1176).
To the end here stated your Conference Board of Missions is dedicated,
and the development of its program is thus directed. The report which
follows, summarizes the activity in which your Board is involved, along with
future plans and recommendations and represents the work of many individuals,
with particular reference to its committee chairmen and the district missionary
secretaries.
"In this world that has been literally 'turned inside out' in one generation
the task of missions is large enough and commanding enough to challenge
all the genius and all the resources of all the people in all the churches."
(1966 Report of the Board of Missions of The Methodist Church).
New Church Support
The Board of Missions urges continued support of the Conference 1000
Club. We must recognize that this is mission work. Our Conference has
made exceptional advances in new church organization.
The "Department of New Church Devolopment" of the National Division
of The General Board of Missions has aided in survey and organizational
work for two Louisiana churches in this quadrennium, one in the Baton Rouge
area during 1965-66, and this past year in the New Orleans District. The
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 111
Louisiana Conference Board of Missions shared in the organizational support
of these special projects.
Research and Survey — The Rev. A. M. Brown, chairman.
The Conference Committee on Research and Survey, a sub-committee of
the Conference Board of Missions and directed by Chairman Alfred M.
Brown, has this year completed its detailed study of our conference. This
included a study of population shifts, membership trends, local church
characteristics, Worship patterns, Official Board structures, local finances, the
work of local church commissions, the Woman's Society of Christian Service
and the Methodist Men. Detailed reports have been printed and are available
to church leaders. It is hoped that boards and agencies of the conference
will use these studies in re-evaluating their work and making records for change.
Aside from major consideration of Urban Life, the need for new congrega-
tions, and Church Extension projects, the report points to the need for a
continued and effective ministry to rural areas, especially in the northern part
of our state where we are losing population and yet where the Methodist
Church remains strong.
Our Urban centers present the Methodist Church with one of its greatest
opportunities and some of the most difficult problems. One phase of the
study was a detailed report of Church Extension needs in our larger cities.
A rethinking of program and activity is necessary to meet the needs of a
change in people and times. It seems that many churches are relying on
Sunday services and church school as the only program activity. Approxi-
mately one-half of our churches have no Senior and lunior High Methodist
Youth Fellowship. More than one-half of our churches have no program for
older youth and younger adults — not even a Sunday School class. Over a
third of our churches have no program for adults. When one considers the
many persons not participating in the few programs that do exist, the situation
is critical.
The church has always found ways of communicating the gospel. The
task facing the contemporary church may be difficult, but where there is a
concern and dedication, a way to minister will be found.
Committee on Mission Studies — Mrs. G. W. Dameron, chairman.
At the beginning of the 1966-67 conference year, the Board of Missions
established a Conference Committee on Mission Studies, according to recom-
mendations received from the loint Section of Education and Cultivation of
the General Board of Missions. The purpose of this committee is to plan
for, and promote, through a unified approach, a program of missionary
education in the local church. District Committees on Mission Studies, or-
ganized along the pattern of the Conference Committee, have carried the
major responsibility for developing the plans recommended by the Conference
Committee.
During this first year, six of the eight districts held twenty Mission Study
Conference on a district or sub-district level, in which local church repre-
112 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
sentatives were given help relative to the mission study theme, Affluence and
Poverty — Dilemma for Christians. Reports show that 815 persons attended
these conferences, and unofficial reports indicate that the study theme has
been widely used by local churches in "Church-wide Studies."
It is hoped that during the forthcoming conference year, with men and
women working together, a broader base for "Education for Mission" can be
established; that local churches will move toward a year-round program of
missionary education, including a church-wide mission study, but offering
additional opportunities, through a variety of plans and groups, for missionary
emphasis.
Urban Work — Dr. B. A. Galloway, chairman.
I said: "Let me walk in the field,"
He said: "No, walk in the town,"
I said: "There are no flowers there."
He said: "No flowers, but a crown."
I said: "But the skies are black,
There is nothing but noise and din."
And He wept as He sent me back:
"There is more," He said, "There is sin."
Anonymous
These lines capture something of the urgency and mood of the task and
responsibility which is peculiar to the Conference Committee on Urban Work
and to every urban church. Those who name the name of Christ and take
seriously His mission to the world, dare not turn away from the city. With
seventy-one (71%) percent of the population of Louisiana now living in urban
centers, our becomes an even greater task. We are not primarily a liturgical
church, but we are a preaching and a ministering church and must relate our-
selves to the total problem of human need and find better methods of com-
municating with the people within the city. The Methodist Church in
Louisiana must place the city at the top of its missionary priority list.
The Inner-Ciy Parish in New Orleans directed by The Rev. Rupert Coles,
now in its fifth year, strives toward two objectives: first, to strengthen the
program of the four inner-city churches, and second, to minister to the needs
of persons living within the inner-city neighborhoods. To reach the first
goal, a cooperative ministry has been established involving the four inner-city
churches. Joint Methodist Youth Fellowship, School of Mission, Quarterly
Conference, and other areas of outreach are now being held. An Inter-Racial
Dialogue Group has been created to improve understanding between the
races. The needs of persons living in the inner-city neighborhoods are met
through tutorial services, domestic skill classes, coffee house ministry, Spanish
speaking work, Parish Prison rehabilitation involvement, teen-canteen, Befriend
a Youth Program, Fixit Shop, and personal counseling. The support of
suburban churches with both material resources and person involvement is
needed for the growth and vitality of the inner-city program.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 113
We commend the many churches in Louisiana that held a School of
Missions this past year, using the study theme, Affluence and Poverty: Dilemma
for Christians. If this study was not held in your church, we suggest that it is
not too late to get the material and conduct the study.
As an outgrowth of the National Urban Convocation held in Chicago in
1966 and with the experience gained from the Inner-City Parish in New
Orleans, a Louisiana Area Urban Workshop is being planned for the fall of
1967. The exact date has been announced by Dr. Galloway of this session
of the Louisiana Annual Conference, as Oct. 7, 1967. We hope to have
delegates from all eight districts and all major urban centers in Louisiana in
attendance so that we can, as a whole conference, become awakened to the
challenge of an urban society. We hope to hold this Workshop in Alexandria.
Methodism in the urban centers of Louisiana is on the move and our
Louisiana Annual Conference is challenged to move with it. We must learn
the language of the city, the tempo of the city; we must learn the people of
the city. Tomorrow is yet to be formed, and it belongs to the city. The city
is People. Either the Church will give itself to the city and its people, or
it will lose the city, it will lose tomorrow, and it will lose its own soul.
This is our challenge and our task.

Report II-A
In this third year of the quadrennium, our continued and full support of
the World Service program of Methodism indicates something of what the
Spirit has been saying to our people and churches. They have responded in
a magnificent way.
There are three basic functions of the Conference Board of Missions.
One, it is a dispensing agency, accepting and using mission funds at points of
greatest need and in keeping with our finest sense of Stewardship. Two, it is
a recruiting agency, not only for professionally qualified persons, but for those
with special skills. The world needs both a Christian witness and Christian
labor. Three, your Board is an educational agency, involved at home in
keeping our pastors and people informed of the world's needs and missions
imperatives as well as promoting and supporting literacy programs in unde-
veloped lands. But more than this, your Board of Missions and its support
is a measure of the conscience of the Conference. It seeks to channel your
love and concern to the children of God in all the world.
116 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
Every local church is urged to study and evaluate their missions program
and participation. Increased involvement is desired and can be encouraged
as we engage in church-wide mission studies, make use of Fourth Sunday
World Service leaflets and preach on missions themes. Missionary minded
leadership will produce a missionary minded church.
BOARD OF MISSIONS
Report II-B
Advance Specials continue to be a major avenue for our specialized
support of projects in which we have a particular interest, as well as
furnishing primary financial support of these projects and the missionaries
related to them.
We recommend to the Annual Conference the approval of the following
named projects as Conference Advance Specials, subject to a written request
by the agency for certification with die approval of the District Superintendent
of the district where the agency is located:
^Louisiana Conference 100 Club
*Inner City Parish, New Orleans
* Shreveport District Special Ministries
^Migrant Ministry, Hammond
eDulac Indian Mission
^Business Girls' Inn, Shreveport
Sager-Brown School, Baldwin
Peeples Community Center, New Orleans
Of special interest to every church in Louisiana should be those persons
who have gone out from this area to serve our church in strategic missionary
locations. Their support is necessary. Many of our churches are establishing,
year after year, an enviable record of necessary support Specials. However,
not all our missionaries are fully supported. Some need Work Funds and
others need support both for salary and Work Funds.
We urge all churches to meet their World Service obligations in full, for
here is the basic mission program and work we support. But we also urge
all churches to give serious consideration to the "Second Mile" concept of
giving and enter as fully as possible into the program of The Advance.

BOARD OF PENSIONS
Report No. 1
We, your Conference Board of Pensions, feel that much progress has been
made in the past few years to provide better security for our retired ministers,
widows, and active brethren. Our Conference has one of the best insurance
and retirement programs in Methodism. We know this will be taken into
consideration by young men returning from Seminaries.
118 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
A. DISTRIBUTION
Fulfilling our responsibility as the Conference Board of Pensions, we
have authorized the payment of claims as follows:
To 65 members retired by The Louisiana Conference, with a total of 1,871
net service years.
To members retired by other conferences with a total of 389 net service
years.
To 71 widows of members retired by The Louisiana Conference with a
total of 1,718 net service years.
To 7 dependent children of deceased ministers with a total of 121 net
service years.
The Louisiana Conference in 1966-67 had the responsibility for a total
of 143 claimants with a total of 4099 net years of service.
These annuity claims have been paid on the basis of the following rates
established by The Annual Conference:
Conference Members (100% of Annuity Bate) and
supplies $65.00 per ser. yr.
Widows of Conference Members (70% Annuity rate) „ 45.50 per ser. yr.
Dependent Children of Conference Members (25%) ___. 16.25 per ser. yr.
B. RESPONSIBILITIES (For the period June 1, 1966 to May 1, 1967)
Other services rendered by The Board of Pensions
1. Necessitous allowance grants and relief aid, totaling approximately
$720.52.
2. Premiums in the amount of $18,256.57 for 143 claimants eligible for
Group Hospitalization and Medical Expense and Death Benefit
Program.
C RECOMMENDATIONS
1. We recommend that the annuity rate for 1967-68 be set at $65 per
service year for retired members. We further recommend that the
General Board of Pensions continue as paying agent for the Louisiana
Annual Conference claimants and tiiat payments be made monthly
in advance.
2. (a) We recommend that there be apportioned to charges for con-
ference claimants an amount of $410,000 to be pro-rated according
to the decimal; $210,000 of this amount to be used for payment of
Conference claimants.
(b) $200,000 to be invested toward down payment on Ministers
Reserve Pension Fund as voted by the 1965 Conference.
(c) We recommend that instead of paying all of our available funds in
down payment on The Ministers Reserve Pension Fund that we pay
only the required 10% down as outlined on page 31 of The Pre-
Conference Report.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 119
We are gratified by the churches' response to the payment of The
Ministers Reserve Pension Fund this past year.
3. We recommend that members of The Conference who are delinquent
on their 1% assessment be allowed to pay without interest until May
15, 1968. After which time a 5% simple interest on the unpaid
balance will be charged per year.
4. We recommend there be continued the work of The Board of
Pensions Committee on proportional payment of ministerial support
in accord with provisions of Paragraph 1624 and 1634 of the 1964
Discipline, and urge upon all members that full disciplinary action
will be taken.
5. We recommend that there be apportioned to each agency and insti-
tution served by a ministerial member under special appointment
with annuity claim on the conference, the sum equal to 9% of the
average salary of the conference; and that said apportionment be
paid to the Treasurer of The Louisiana Conference no later than
May 15.
6. We further recommend that the special appointments for the 1967
Conference Journal be granted annuity for 1966-67 on the following
basis:

7. Recognizing the need for an adequate pension program for Lay Em-
ployees of the Local Church and Church Organizations we recom-
mend that all churches and church organizations adopt the "Lay
Employee Reserve Pension Fund", a program of The General Board
of Pensions, for all full-time lay employees.
8. (a) That in determining years of service, The Board shall carefully
examine and consider those years of service listed in the Conference
Journals prior to accepting them as valid years; and that any years
in question shall be subject to validation by the applicant and by
approval of The Board and The Annual Conference.
(b) We recommend that a deadline on applications for annuity credit
for prior Supply Years, for which the conference member considers
himself eligible, shall be Conference of 1968.
(c) The notices for any claim for years of service shall be presented
to The Board in writing.
9. In compliance with the recommendation of The General Board of
Pensions and in order to make it possible for our Board to be recipi-
ents of wills, bequests, and legacies, we request The Annual Confer-
ence to approve a resolution for incorporation. (See Resolution),
1610.1.
HOSPITALIZATION AND MEDICAL EXPENSE AND DEATH BENEFIT
PROGRAMS:
1. In-as-much as "Medicare" is considered a Group Insurance Plan by the
Insurance Industry, the General Board of Pensions has re-written the
Hospital and Medical Expense Program so that it provides a major medical,
utilizing "Medicare" as the basic plan for all persons over age 65 whether
active or retired and all persons under age 65 will be included in the
"Under age 65 Comprehensive" with benefits as outlined in The General
Board of Pensions Brochure HMEP . . . Since this gives considerable addi-
tional benefits to our over age 65 at less cost to them, we recommend that
all persons over age 65 enroll in Medicare.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 121
2. We recommend that the HMEP & DBP: Hospitalization and Medical Ex-
pense Program and Death Benefit Program rates, as outlined in The
Pre-Conference Report, page 33 be adopted for the year 1967-68. Please
note that the HMEP premium remains the same. The slight increase irv
the DBP rate reflects the increase in the average salary of the conference.
This will also entail a larger Death Benefit payment. The average salary
for the year 1966-67 is $6,791.00, therefore, the DBP premium will be
$67.91 annually.
3. We recommend that the church pay one-half and the minister pay one-half
of the premium.
4. We recommend that the conference Board of Pensions pay all conference
claimants' premiums in full.
5. We remind the members of The Annual Conference that Hospitalization
and Medical Expense Program (HMEP) and Death Benefit Program (DBP)
premiums are due in advance/ on the 1st of each month. Should a
minister or layman desire termination of his insurance benefits, he is
responsible for notifing The Board of Pensions of such intent; and, must
pay premium to date of notification.' Also you are reminded that each
minister and each layman is responsible for the entire premium.
6. We remind members of The Annual Conference that all local church Lay
Employees and Lay Employees of church institutions are eligible for
HMEP & DBP.
We recommend that a claimant under age sixty-five (65) on medical
retirement, who recovers sufficiently to resume ministerial work or to engage
in a remunerative occupation, shall receive a reduced pension in the amount
of: the total pension less the salary he receives for the work he is doing.
(See paragraph 1630, Sec. 2, 1964 Discipline).

COMMITTEE ON COURTESIES
We would like to express for all who have shared in this Conference the
gratitude felt toward each person contributing to its success.
To Bishop Aubrey G. Walton our sincere thanks for his wonderful leader-

endeavored to correlate the work and efforts of our great church.
To his lovely wife we give our heartfelt thanks for her genuine friendship
and concern. We are always glad when she is in our midst.
For the many courtesies and all accommodations extended to us by
President Jack Wilkes and his staff, here at Centenary College, and by Dr. D.
L. Dykes and his staff and people at First Methodist we express our deepest
thanks.
To Dr. Kermit Long we say thanks for the memory of stimulating
messages and gems of superb humor.
We would also express real empathy with the words expressed by
Dr. D. L. Dykes in our Memorial Service, and with the words of worship

clerical, each morning.
We give our sincere thanks to the tellers, both lay and clerical, for their
faithful service and prompt reports; to the resourceful leaders of all com-

Report of Commission

This Commission is concerned about several hardship cases of ministers'
families. They are not getting minimum salary. This may be corrected
by change of charge boundries or liberalizing the rules of Minimum
Salary Commission.
The Commission "memoralized" General Conference to allow Approved
Supply Pastors with eight years of consecutive, acceptable service to vote
in Annual Conference Sessions.
We are working on delegation of 40 "decision makers" from this con-
ference to the National Consultation on the Church in Community Life,
an ecumenical, non-metropolitan meeting, at Columbus, Ohio, September
5-8, 1967. Most have been secured. Upon returning, this delegation
will have District, sub-District and local church meetings to share the
Consultation with our conference.
A pilot project to train 'men young in the ministry" in church admin-
istration and practical theology is scheduled for the Baton Rouge District
this summer or early fall.
We urge the observance of Rural Life Sunday and Soil Conservation
Week this coming spring.

with other churches by sending a copy to the Area Office for the building
files.
TELEVISION, RADIO AND FILM COMMISSION
With the aid of General TRAFCO, two workshops were conducted this
onference year. The chairmen are Hugh Baker, radio; Barry Bailey, tele-
/ision, and William E. Nolan, audio-visuals. They are charged with the
responsibility of leading districts and local churches in the use of materials
produced by General TRAFCO. Dr. Gene Carter of New York, and Nelson
Price of Nashville directed the first workshop. At a second workshop,
Nelson Price and William Richards taught ministers from the Baton Rouge
and Lafayette Districts the techniques of the radio program "Word and
Music".
As a result of the workshop, the following ministers have scheduled
the "Word and Music" program:
Rev. M. C. Cady, Assoc. Minister, First Methodist Church, Baton Rouge,
WQXY-FM, 8:00 A.M., Sunday; October 30, 1966.
Rev. William Blakely, Amite; WABL-AM; 12 Noon, Tuesdays; March 15,
1967.
Rev. Cleburne Quaid, Bogalusa; WIKC-AM; 10:00 A.M., Sundays;
April 15, 1967.
Rev. Robert Peyton, Bastrop; KTRY-KVOB; May 1, 1967.
Rev. Gilbert Wade, Ferriday; FFNV; May 1, 1967.
Rev. Duke Barron, New Iberia; KANE-AM; June 15, 1967.
Certificates of recognition will be presented to these ministers during
Annual Conference.
William E. Nolan, chairman of audio-visuals, works with the Area Office
in sending the ministers a list of films which are available from the Area
Office. All new audio-visual aids are listed in "Saddlebags" which is mailed
monthly by the Area Office to all ministers.
The month of October, 1967, will be designated as "Television Evaluation
Month" in our Annual Conference. Under the leadership of Barry Bailey,
Chairman of Television, and through the ministers in our conference, a small
booklet will be placed in families of our conference. The booklet will contain
basic suggestions about viewing television programs, and inside each booklet
will be four postal cards to be used by the family to let the local television
station know their reactions to the programs.
The Conference TRAFCO attended the luncheon meeting in New Orleans
of General TRAFCO on March 16. Bishop Walton, president of General
Television, Radio and Film Commission in American Methodism, presided.
Bishop Walton and Dr. J. C. Love, a member of General TRAFCO and of the
South Central Jurisdictional TRAFCO, continue to give leadership to TRAFCO,

not only in our conference but throughout the Church. They have attended

REPORT OF THE
WOMAN'S SOCIETY OF CHRISTIAN SERVICE
AND
WESLEYAN SERVICE GUILD
TO THE LOUISIANA ANNUAL CONFERENCE
MAY 29 - JUNE 2, 1967
It is a priviledge for me to make this report to the Louisiana Annual
Conference and I appreciate the opportunity to do so.
In January of this year, it was my very great priviledge to attend the
Annual Meeting of the Woman's Division in Cincinnati, Ohio, and that of the
Board of Missions in Louisville, Kentucky. It was wonderful to have this
opportunity during my first year as Conference President, for it enlarged my
vision and increased my knowledge.
Miss Mildred Evans, Conference Guild Secretary, and I are indebted
to the many who have given us help and guidance during this year. Parti-
cularly do we wish to acknowledge the help of Miss Arline Tyler, immediate
past Conference Guild Secretary, and Mrs. G. W. Dameron, immedaite past
President of the Conference Woman's Society. Miss Evans and I have
worked closely together through the year and this report is also her report.
This has been a year of Challenge and Response for the women of the
Louisiana Conference Woman's Society and Guild. Involved in this
challenge and response have been changes which were necessary that our
program of Mission Study might be more cooperative with that of the Church.
This has been carried on from the Regional School of Christian Mission
through Conference Schools, the Committee functioning under the Conference
Board of Mission, the District Mission Study Conferences and into the local
societies which have had Churchwide Mission Studies. We expect to do even
better this next year in working cooperatively.
We have ventured forth in the field of Ecumenism in many ways;
through participation in the program of Church Women United and through
an invitation extended to the members of the Women's Society of the two
churches of the Evangelical United Brethren located here in Louisiana to
meet with us in our Annual Meeting held in Lake Charles, in March. The
Conference Woman's Society invited the members of the Executive Committee
Louisiana Conference Woman's Society Central Jurisdiction to attend the
Annual Meeting also.
134 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
One of the most rewarding of all the undertakings of the Conference
Executive Committee was that of a second phase of Self Study. The district
vice presidents and the district secretaries of Spiritual Life Cultivation were
brought in to meet with the Executive Committee as they would be involved
in carrying this into the districts. The purpose of this Self Study was to
consider the effects of the first phase of Self Study on us as individuals -
deepened faith, acceptance of ourselves as an individual - attitudes and habits,
and to discover the relationship between our actions and our faith as an
individual, as members of the Woman's Society and Guild, and as members of
the Church. It is hoped that each local society will engage in this most
rewarding experience.
A special challenge was that of being chosen to have one of twelve (12)
Hub-City Workshops in the United States on World Understanding - Focus
Africa. This was held at the University Methodist Church, Baton Rouge.
Representatives of 12 Conferences of the South Central and Central Jurisdic-
tions, in addition to many local people, participated in this workshop, a follow
up of World Understanding Workshops held in Africa, sponsored by the
Section on Christian Social Relations of the Woman's Division. From these
Hub-City Workshops it is hoped that there will be thousands of "Spin Offs"
over the United States.
We have cooperated in sending college and youth representatives to the
Missionary Conference at Mt. Sequoyah. We will again sponsor an out of
state Mission Tour for Youth on June 5th. This year 37 young people of the
78 who applied have been selected to go on the Tour. The young people
have developed a real sense of Christian fellowship as they have participated
in the tours and have had a revealing and inspiring experience as they have
seen the Church at work in so many ways.
Mrs. Nell Coulter Peach was commissioned a Deaconess and one U. S. 2,
Miss Brenda Moorman, has gone from our Conference this past year.
Training in many areas has been provided during this year. In May
the officers and secretaries and chairmen of the Woman's Society and the
Wesleyan Service Guild of the South Central Jurisdiction participated in a
Leadership Performance Task Group under the direction of Dr. Howard
Hamm, General Secretary of the Division of the Local Church of the Methodist
Board of Education. This was held at Mt. Sequoyah.
Membership continues to be of vital concern to the Woman's Society
and the Wesleyan Service Guild. We are somewhat more encouraged than
we were this time last year for the membership seems to be stabilizing across
the country and in Louisiana. There have been six new societies organized
and one reactivated, giving us 323 societies. Two new Guilds have been
organized making a total of 100 Units. This gives us a total membership
of approximately 14,808 members which is not an increase over last year's
membership.
The Conference did not meet the pledge it had made. An amount of
$139,565.26 was paid on the pledge to Missions. Our total giving of
$173,161.48 included pledges to Missions, Supply Work, A Call to Prayer
and Self Denial and other special offerings. This was $1,656.39 more than
the total amount given last year. This does not include an amount of
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 135
$1,784.24 given to the Louisiana Moral and Civic Foundation nor funds used
in local church and community endeavors. MYFunds are no longer sent
through the Woman's Division but are sent directly to the National Division.
Yes, the challenges have been many, but so have the opportunities to
grow been increased as our horizons of study, interest and service have been
extended. The Woman's Society and Wesleyan Service Guild will have
more challenges in the year to come, but realizing that without change, there
is no growth, we shall face them with courage and the belief that the
Woman's Society and the Wesleyan Service Cuild have an important role
to play in carrying on the work of the Methodist Church.
Mrs. Charles B. McGowan, President
Louisiana Conference Woman's
Society of Christian Service
COMMISSION ON WORSHIP
The full report of the conference Commission on Worship will be found
on pages 47 of the 1967 Pre-Conference Reports, which report includes the
following recommendations:
(1) That every local church make available the necessary funds to send its
pastor, chairman of the Commission on Worship, choir director, organist-
pianist, and other interested persons to the CONVOCATION ON WOR-
SHIP to be held October 27-28, 1967, at First Methodist Church, Baton
Rouge.
(2) That every local church organize a Commission on Worship, and that
every pastor provide leadership for this Commission so that the worship
in our churches may become truly the vital "work of the people" and
a valid expression of the faith of the congregation, and not just the
handiwork of the clergy.
(3) That very careful study be given by building committees and congrega-
tions planning new church buildings to the worship needs of our people,
so that new buildings may be both fitting expressions of our faith and
efficient instruments for our worship and mission as the people of God.
(4) That every local church secure and faithfully use the new editions of
The Methodist Hymnal and The Book of Worship.

James E. Christie, Chairman
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON URBAN WORK
The Inner-City Parish in New Orleans, now in its fifth year, strives
toward two objectives: First, to strengthen the program of the four inner-city
churches; and, second, to minister to the needs of persons living within the
inner-city neighborhoods. To reach the first goal a cooperative ministry has
136 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
been established involving the four inner-city churches. Joint Methodist
Youth Fellowship, School of Missions, Quarterly Conference, and other areas of
outreach are now being held. An Inter-Racial Dialogue Group has been
created to improve understanding between races. The needs of persons living
in the inner-city neighborhoods are met through tutorial services, domestic
skill classes, coffee house ministry, Spanish speaking work, Parish Prison re-
habilitation involvement, teen canteen, Befriend a Youth Program, Fixit Shop,
and personal counseling. The support of suburban churches with both
material resources and person involvement is needed for the growth and
vitality of the inner-city program.
As an outgrowth of the National Urban Convocation held in Chicago in
1966 and with the experience gained from the Inner-City Parish in New Or-
leans, a Louisiana Area Urban Workshop will be held on October 7, 1967 in
Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Delegates to this confrence will be appointed by
the several district superintendents and will be notified very soon. Travel
expense of these delegates will be paid.
Respectfully submitted,

RESOLUTION ON THE CENTRAL JURISDICTION
By the adoption of this Resolution each Annual Conference, each
Jurisdictional Conference, the General Conference, each College of
Bishops and the Council of Bishops pledge their best efforts to eliminate
as soon as possible all forms of racial structure from the organization
of The Methodist Church, and further pledge to do everything possible
to develop greater understanding and brotherhood in all aspects of
church life and work.
Each Annual Conference and Jurisdictional Conference which has been
part of a merger of churches or Conferences formerly separated by
racial distinctions pledges its best efforts to work out all remaining
adjustments, to use the ability of both clergy and laymen wherever they
can be most effective in the work of the Church, and to serve all
people without regard to race.
"Where such mergers have not yet been realized, each such Conference
expresses its earnest determination to work toward such merger at the
earliest possible date and hereby pledges to establish a Committee on
Inter-Conference Relations composed of an equal number of ministers,
laymen and youth to implement the recommendations and resolutions
of this report and recommendation of the Plan of Action for the elimina-
tion of the Central Jurisdiction adopted by the 1964 General Conference
and that each board and agency of the Church be alert for opportunities
to assist each Committee in every possible way.
Whenever such mergers hereafter take place the continuing Annual
Conference will:
a. Accept into its membership, with all the same rights, privileges,
status and obligations all ministerial members (whether on trial or
in full connection) appointed to charges located geographically
within the continuing Conference, and all ministerial members un-
der special appointment or retired ministerial members who hold
Quarterly Conference membership in a local church located geo-
graphically within the boundaries of the continuing Conference.
b. Insofar as possible, the ministerial and lay persons now serving on
boards and agencies of both of the merging Conferences shall serve
during the current quadrennium on like or similar boards and
agencies shall be open to all persons on the basis of their qualifica-
•
142 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
tions without regard to race. In the event any Disciplinary pro-
vision limiting the number of members of a board or agency should
prevent the continuation of all members during the current quadren-
nium, the Cabinet shall determine which members shall continue,
in the spirit of this Resolution, being careful to provide for a
continuing representation of both of the former Conferences.
c. Within the boundaries of such a continuing Conference opportunities
for spiritual and intellectual growth in Christian service shall be
made available to all without regard to race or color. Such equal
opportunities shall be provided particularly in such aspects of
Conference programs as activities of the Woman's Society of
Christian Service, Wesleyan Service Guild, youth work, leadership
training enterprises and the Board of Lay Activities.
"4. Pertaining to Southeastern Jurisdiction. . .
"5. Pertaining to Southeastern Jurisdiction. . .
"6. Upon the adoption of this Resolution by a 2/3rds vote of those present
and voting in each of the Louisiana, Southwest, Texas and West Texas
Conferences of the Central Jurisdiction, in all the Annual Conferences
of the Central Jurisdiction, and in all the Annual Conferences of the
South Central Jurisdiction, the bishop formerly serving the Southwestern
Area of the Central Jurisdiction shall be transferred to the South Central
Jurisdiction for residential and presidential service, and the Louisiana,
Southwest, Texas and West Texas Conferences formerly part of the
Central Jurisdiction will be Conferences of the South Central
Jurisdiction.
"7. Pertaining to Southeastern Jurisdiction. . .
"8. By the adoption of this Resolution by the Southeastern and South
Central Jurisdictional Conferences and by the Colleges of Bishops of
Southeastern and South Central it is determined that beginning in 1968
the episcopal residences and Areas will be so arranged that no Area
will be composed solely of Annual Conferences formerly part of the
Central Jurisdiction.
"9. By the adoption of this Resolution the Council of Bishops evidences its
readiness to transfer bishops across Jurisdictional lines in order to
effectuate the purpose of this Resolution, and the bishops individually
affirm their readiness to serve wherever they can be of greatest use.
10. By the adoption of this Resolution each Annual Conference, each Juris-
dictional Conference, the General Conference, each College of Bishops
and the Council of Bishops express their determination to do everything
possible to bring about the elimination of any structural organization
in The Methodist Church based on race at the earliest possible date
and not later than the close of the Jurisdictional Conferences of 1972.
They further express their earnest determination to do everything pos-
sible to develop greater understanding and brotherhood in Methodism
as well as in the world."
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 143
WORLD SERVICE AND FINANCE
Report No. 1 of Commission
World Service and Conference Benevolences is the "life blood" without
which the Boards, Commissions, Committees, and many agencies of the Church
cannot operate. This is true on the Annual Conference level as well as on
the General church level. Giving to this program is increasingly important
and challenging.
Your Commission believes that it is becoming more and more apparent
that there is a continuing need for regarding World Service and Conference
Benevolences as the personal responsibility of each member of the local
church. Every church member needs to know more about the benevolent
causes which these funds support. When church people know where their
money goes, they have greater interest and they respond more generously. We
urge each Pastor and lay leader to utilize every method and procedure avail-
able, and to use their own ingenuity to present the thrilling story of World
Service to the whole congregation. Let's keep the Church's "life blood"
flowing.
The Louisiana Conference has had another good year. The response
of the local church to the challenge of increased giving has been inspiring.
Let us join in thanks to Almighty God for making it possible for the people
called Methodist, Louisiana Methodist that is, to "dream dreams", to "see
visions", and to take responsive and responsible action to the continuing
challenges of the day.
Now, let us give our attention to several general matters.
We remind the Conference and its agencies that no financial appeal,
whether by Conference or institutional interests, shall be made without the
approval of this Commission, unless otherwise excepted. (See Par. 810, 811
of the 1964 Discipline).
We also remind all ministers and churches that remittances for World
Service and Conference Benevolences as well as Ministerial Claims items
shall be made monthly, if practical, but at least quarterly to the Conference
Treasurer. (See Par. 804, 823 of 1964 Discipline).
The fiscal year for the Louisiana Annual Conference shall be from June
1 to May 31. All Conference reports and payments should be made to the
Conference Treasurer by May 15 of the Conference year. The Commission
authorizes the Treasurer to close his books on May 15, accepting only such
reports as are postmarked by midnight of that date.
WORLD SERVICE AND FINANCE
Report No. 2
Recommendations
In accordance with the action of the General Conference, we suggest
that an amount equal to $1.00 per member be paid by each local church
144 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
for the support of Centenary College, and that an amount of $1.00 per
member be paid for the support of the Wesley Foundation.
We recommend that the Board of Directors of the Methodist Home Hos-
pital be granted the privilege of presenting the Maintenance Budget of the
Home to each local church with a suggested amount of 4 per cent of the
Pastor's salary to be raised by that church. Christmas Sunday, December 24,
1967 shall be designated as Methodist Home Hospital Sunday and the offering
for maintenance is to be received on that day unless otherwise planned by
the local church.
We also recommend that the Louisiana Moral and Civic Foundation be
given both moral and financial support as well as every opportunity to present
its cause to the local church and community. A suggested goal of 25«/*
per member is urged.
We urge that the month of November be observed as Retired Ministers'
Homes month and that Sunday, November 5, 1967 be designated as Retired
Ministers' Homes Sunday. An offering should be received for the support of
this work at this time (or any other time selected by the local church).
We commend for the consideration of the local church the wholehearted
support of Lydia E. Patterson Institute. If maintenance support is being
offered, please mark it clearly "Maintenance". If support is being given to the
Building Fund, please mark it "Building". We urge completion of all giving
to the Emergency Capital Funds Campaign this year.
We request that all churches give their full support to the Methodist
Children's Home in Ruston. Proper observance should be made of both the
Fall and Spring emphasis in support of this agency. Dates for special offering
Sundays are October 15, 1967 and April 14, 1968.
We urge continued support of the building and operating prograiA oi
Methodist Hospital in New Orleans. The Conference is reminded that this
is Louisiana Methodism's newest service agency and deserves our best support.
Further, we recommend that Sunday, January 14, 1968 be designated as
Methodist Hospital Sunday, at which time this cause is to be lifted up as a
concern of the Conference with an offering being received for its initial
operating costs.
The Commission highly recommends a continued emphasis by all churches
on Advance Specials, both General and Conference, requesting however, that
all churches pay in full their World Service and Conference Benevolence
apportionment before appropriating funds for Second Mile projects. We
should know that World Service and Conference Benevolences is the real
foundation for all other programs in the Church.
The Conference is reminded of its obligation to support the Jurisdictional
Ministerial Education Fund in the amount of 1% of the local church's operat-
ing budget. This important concern deserves our concerned support.
We recommend to the Conference the continued support of Western
Methodist Assembly at Mount Sequoyah with a goal of $10 per pastoral
charge. Each District is to raise the amount on the basis of the total number
of charges in the District.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 145
We recommend that the amount for support of Louisiana Council of
Churches be apportioned to the districts and that each District Superintendent
direct its apportionment to each local church.
It is recommended that the First National Bank of Ruston, Louisiana be
designated as the Official Depository for all funds of the Louisiana Annual
Conference.
The Commission recommends the continuation of the system of apportion-
ments on the decimal plan (for details, see the Conference Rules in the
Journal). The decimal shall be applied to the following Conference items:
(I) District Superintendent's Fund; (2) Episcopal Fund; (3) Board of Pensions;
(4) Minimum Salary Fund; (5) General Conference Administration Fund;
(6) Jurisdictional Conference Administration Fund; (7) Annual Conference
Administration Fund; (8) Interdenominational Cooperation Fund; (9) Temp-
orary General Aid Fund; (10) World Service and Conference Benevolences;
(II) Radio and Television Fund.
With regard to the Pastor's Expense Account and Utilities Expense, the
Commission recommends to the Conference that (1) permission be granted
to the pastoral charge to pay an amount not to exceed $1500.00 as Expense,
provided that the salary set by the Fourth Quarterly Conference be maintained,
and that in no event a charge be allowed to reduce its salary in order to raise
the expense account; and (2) permission be granted to the pastoral charge to
pay an amount not to exceed $600.00 as Utilities Expense, provided that the
salary not be reduced below the 1966-67 level.
In order to comply with Federal Income Tax regulations, we recommend
that Utilities on the Bishop's residence, District Parsonages, and Parsonages
used by the Area Director and Ministerial Associate, the Executive Secretary of
the Board of Education, the Promotional Director of Methodist Hospital, and
the Conference Treasurer be considered a part of their salary as a "Housing
Allowance".
WORLD SERVICE AND FINANCE
Report No. 3
Conference Administration
The Conference Administration Fund continues to "limp" slightly because
of "beatings" it has received in other years. However, more and more it is
proving its "reason for existence". The Area Council office which receives
about 70% of these funds is increasingly showing its practical service to the
Conference. As this truth becomes more widespread to individual local church
members, the collection of these funds will more nearly aproach 100%. We
urge each Pastor and layman to become more knowledgeable concerning the
importance of this Fund and to lead their church toward total support.
146 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
The Commission is holding the line on the total amount to be appor-
tioned for 1967-68. The amount recommended for approval is $122,000.00.

206 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
CONFERENCE RULES
Apportionments — All conference askings to be apportioned to each local
church through the application of a decimal to be derived from the following
factors taken from the last published Journal of the Louisiana Annual
Conference:
A. One-half on the basis of membership.
B. One-half on the basis of these six columns: Paid Other Current
Expenses, Etc.; Church School: Lesson Materials, Supplies, Ad-
ministration, etc.; Pastor's Salary Paid; Associate's Salary Paid;
Travel Allowance Total Paid; Utilities Paid.
Appropriations — Any legislation requiring appropriation of conference
funds shall be presented to the Commission on World Service and Finance
for study and approval before being presented to the Annual Conference.
Church Extension — Each church securing assistance from the Church
Extension Funds of the Conference Board of Missions shall be required
to secure the refunding of the sum donated in the event of the property
being alienated from the Methodist Church, by entering and recording a
mortgage for the sum donated; provided that this shall not apply to donations
of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) or less.
Data for Memoirs — The district superintendent in whose district a mem-
ber, wife or widow of a preacher dies, shall appoint someone to secure, in
advance of conference, data concerning the deceased. Each member of the
conference is required to furnish the Editor of the Annual a sufficient
history of himself.
Fiscal Year — June 1st to May 31st is the Fiscal Year for the conference.
Membership District Conference — The District Conference shall be
composed of all parties mentioned in paragraph 687, Discipline 1960, and,
in addition thereto, to the following: one lay member from each church'
in the charge, provided, however, that each charge shall not have less than
five (5) elected delegates.
Local Preachers — All applicants for a Local Preacher's license shall be
required to pass the course of study for candidates for license to preach as
prescribed by the Discipline under the supervision of the Department of
Ministerial Education. The Conference Board of Ministerial Training and
Qualifications shall be responsible for the tuition fee of such a course.
Pre-Conference Reports — All Boards, Commissions, and Committees are
to prepare reports, resolutions, and recommendations and send them to the
office of the Area Director 60 days before the opening date of the Annual
Conference; and that the Area Director compile and mimeograph or print
these reports and mail two copies to each minister 30 days before the Annual
Conference convenes.
Exception to this rule will be the report of the Conference Treasurer and
Statistician and the reports of the various Boards and Commissions that can-
not be completed until the session of the Annual Conference.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 207
Any supplementary report prepared later, containing any resolutions
or recommendations, shall be printed or mimeographed and handed to the
delegates when the report is made to the Annual Conference.
Statistical Reports - Statistical Table I shall be mailed to the Statistical
Secretary, and Table II with all remittances for the conference year shall
be mailed to the Conference Treasurer not less than fifteen (15) days before
the first day of Conference. The Statistical Secretary and the Treasurer shall
notify the District Superintendents of the charges in their District which have
not reported, and the District Superintendents will be expected to furnish
the delinquent reports in ten days.
Widows - A directory of widows of deceased members shall be pub-
lished in the Annual. The Secretary of the Board of Pensions shall secure
from each widow a statement of her needs, for the information of the Board.
Minimum Salary Fund - No man may now or in any future date, share
in the Minimum Salary Fund who does not pay the assessment, unless he
can satisfy the Committee that he is unable to pay it.
Terms of Membership - The terms of membership on all Boards, Com-
missions, and the Committees shall be a maximum of eight years, with this rule
becoming effective in 1960, and applying to all who have served eight years
on such Boards, Commissions and Committees by 1960. This rule does not
apply to Trustees.
Salaries - District Superintendents - The total salaries and expenses of
the District Superintendents paid by the Annual Conference shall be the
average to the next $100.00 of the twenty highest totals as shown on the
Worksheets of the Cabinet which totals shall include the pastor's salary,
expense, and utilities.

220 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
THE REV. G. M. HORNE
May 25, 1967, The Reverend George M. Home, a retired Methodist
Minister, living in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, joined the Church Triumphant.
Brother Home was born in Grapeland, Texas, May 10, 1895. He spent
his childhood and youth there. He served in World War I as a Chief Petty
Officer in Communications. After service he returned home and married
Miss Mary Hite, September 8, 1919.
He received a law degree from American Extension University and was
admitted to the Oklahoma bar in 1925.
In 1926-27 he attended Southern Methodist University, and then some
years later received a Bachelor of Theology degree from Union Theological
College in Chicago.
He was admitted into the Texas Conference on trial in 1941, admitted
into full connection in the Texas Conference in 1945. In 1948 Reverend
Home transferred to the Louisiana Annual Conference where he spent most
of his ministry. Some of the Charges he held were Tickfaw-Loranger Circuit,
where under his Pastorate the beautiful Cooper's Chapel Church was built.
From there he was assigned the Walker Charge in 1951, and moved to
Deerford in 1955. It was while serving Deerford Church that Brother Home
retired in June, 1960.
The Reverend Home was highly esteemed by the people he served and
with whom he worked. He was well known both in Church and Fraternal
Circles. At the time of his death he was State Chaplain to World War One
Veterans.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Mary Home, one son, Chaplain Robert
A. Home, stationed in Germany, and one, daughter, Mrs. Elsie Wayne
Tisdale, Baton Rouge.
Memorial services were held in Istrouma Methodist Church with The
Reverend Jerome Cain and Marvin Corley officiating.
MRS. C. M. HUGHES
Mrs. Elliedee Beazley Hughes, widow of the Reverend Charles Mose
Hughes, was born in Shreveport on December 22, 1889.
She began studying music at an early age, and as a piano student showed
such remarkable talent that when she had outgrown local teachers, she was
accepted as a pupil by one of the leading piano teachers in New York. She
later studied organ, also in New York.
When she returned to Shreveport, she taught privately and served as
organist at First Methodist Church. Later she served at Noel Memorial
Methodist as both organist and choir director.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 221
She was married to Charles Mose Hughes, who was then headmaster
of the Centenary Academy, and superintendent of the Sunday School at
Noel Memorial Church.
In the years following, she shared in her husband's varied ministry in
Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Louisiana. Prior to his retirement in
1946, they served for eight years at Waterproof. During these years of
service, she often served as pianist or organist and choir director, taking part
in the women's activities in the local churches. In many of these com-
munities she also served as an unpaid director of community choruses or other
music groups.
Following Bro. Hughes' retirement, they made their home in Leesville,
where, following his death in 1951, she continued to live among the many
friends she had made. She was an active member of First Methodist Church,
Leesville, and continued to teach piano and organ until failing health necessi-
tated her entering a nursing home in Winnsboro in 1959, where she died on
May 23, 1967.
She was buried in Leesville, with the Reverend James E. Christie
officiating at her funeral.
REV. ADRIAN M. SEREX
If I were asked to summarize the life and work of Adrian M. Serex,
the words I would use are found in Paul's admonition to Timothy, his "son
in the ministry". They are — "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a
workman that needeth not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth"
(II Timothy 2:15); and "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my
course, I have kept the faith ." (II Timothy 4:7).
Adrian Serex was one of the ablest and most articulate ministers ever to
serve Methodism and the Christian Ministry. Born in Claberg, Belgium,
March 28, 1903, son of a minister, he attended John Calvin College in Geneva,
Switzerland, and received his Bachelor of Arts Degree from the Athenaeum of
St. Giles in Brussels, Belgium at the age of 18. During World War I he
served as a medical aid on a train in Switzerland which carried wounded
soldiers to their respective countries. After the war he began to consider
the various schools in which he might continue his theological training, foi
he had heard the call to preach the Word of God, and felt the need to
train himself as highly as possible. Finally, at the age of 18 years, he
immigrated to the United States, and began working on his B. D. Degree at
Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, and in 1923 was admitted on trial into
the Louisiana Annual Conference. He received this degree in 1924, then
moved on to New Orleans where he became associate minister of old First
Church. While there, he earned his Master of Arts Degree from Tulane
University in 1925, and in 1926 he was admitted into full connection in the
Louisiana Annual Conference. It was also while Associate Pastor at First
Church, New Orleans, that he met and married Mary Muir Bays. They were
090
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
united in the holy bonds of matrimony on October 19, 1926. To this union
were born the following children: Henry Muir, Mary Bays, William Dobbs,
and Donald Martin. Mary Muir Serex preceded her husband in death, having
been transferred to the Church Triumphant June 2, 1961. In 1928 he re-
turned to Belgium as a student at the University of Brussels, where in 1929
he earned the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. In 1926 he was appointed
pastor of Second Church in New Orleans, and later served as pastor at New
Iberia and Minden. From 1936 to 1942 he was Superintendent of the Shreve-
port District. From 1942 to 1952 he served First Church in Monroe — which
is the longest pastorate that church has ever had. In 1952 he went to Rayne
Memorial Church in New Orleans and stayed there until 1962 when, because
of ill health, he was granted sabbatical leave. In 1963 he accepted appoint-
ment as pastor of the new Methodist Church in Belle Chasse, where he served
until his death. At the same time and for the same period, Dr. Serex served
as Chaplain for Touro Infirmary, the Baptist Hospital, and the Eye, Ear,
Nose, and Throat Hospital in New Orleans. In November of 1963 he married
the former Emeline Gober Crawford of Prattville and Bay Minette, Alabama.
Those who knew Adrian M. Serex loved and appreciated him. The
possessor of a keen mind and an articulate tongue, he was in constant de-
mand as preacher, teacher, and lecturer. While at Emory University he was
student instructor in French and Greek New Testament. While on the
Shreveport District he lectured in philosophy at Centenary College, and
taught a course in Philosophy of Religion at Perkins School of Theology in
Dallas, Texas. The churches that he served were the fortunate recipients
of his vast knowledge and facile mind.
While those of us who knew Adrian Serex remember him as a person of
deep intellect and as a great preacher, there were other important facets of
his life that cannot be passed over. He was a great humanitarian who loved
and worked well with people. During World War II, while he was pastor of
First Church in Monroe, he had a devotional program which went over a
local radio station each night at 10:15. Deigning to tape the program he
went to the station each night to do the program, and it became a legend
in its time. His deep compassion and knowledge of what war can do to
the minds of men were blended into the most popular radio program in the
area — even at that late hour. People in the City of Monroe and surrounding
areas still talk about the good that emanated from these programs. While in
Monroe, Dr. Serex also helped found a chapter of Alcoholics Anonymous, and
each year, until his death, he was that group's honored guest at their annual
banquet. He was one who loved people, and who could, because of previous
personal experience, have "empathy" for them.
Adrian Serex heeded well the admonition to "study to show thyself ap-
proved unto God — a workman with no need for shame". He attended six
colleges and Universities on two continents. His hungry mind was forever
searching for the truth; and all during his ministry he continued his quest for
knowledge. His great desire was "to know" and "to be", and to help others
along this path. He will be remembered by many of the younger men of the
Conference for his work of many years as Chairman of the Board of Ministerial
Training and Qualification. In this capacity he was able to guide many young
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 223
men who sought admission into the Conference, and in this way his life
touched many lives.
Adrian loved his church and served her well throughout his entire min-
istry. Bishop Aubrey G. Walton, in his eulogy of Dr. Serex said this: "His
going brings to a close a long and rewarding ministry. I have not had an
opportunity to check on the lists, but his service record of forty-three years as
an active minister in the Louisiana Annual Conference may mean that he
possessed the longest record of active years of any man now serving in the
Conference."
On June 10, 1962, he served his last Sunday at Rayne Memorial Church
in New Orleans - although he was unable to attend the service. This brought
to a close the longest active ministry of any man at that church, and his fare-
well message to his congregation was printed on the back of his bulletin. It
gives more insight to his unselfish and dedicated life than any words of my
own ever could. He wrote: "My leaving the pulpit of Rayne Memorial is
altogether my loss, not yours. . . .(your new minister) is one of the most gifted
and capable ministers in the Conference He has an adorable wife, whom,
I am sure, you will love. I commend your new minister to your love and care.
Help him in ever possible way. The ministry at Rayne Memorial is not an
easy task. The demands which you make upon your spiritual leader are the
most exacting. ... so, I beseech you to make things as easy as possible for
my successor. Rally behind him, work harmoniously with him, and above all
else — love him, so that he may be at his best and that the influence and
services of Rayne Memorial to this great city may be at their peaks of effec-
tiveness and power."
In addition to the many friends Adrian Serex leaves behind, he is sur-
vived by his widow, Mrs. Emeline Gober Serex, three sons, William D. and
Donald M. Serex, both of New Orleans, and Henry M. Serex of Sacramento,
California; a daughter, Mrs. E. A. Parker of Foster City, California; his step-
mother, Mrs. Emily Serex of Montreux, Switzerland; a sister, Mrs. Henri
DeWorm of Montreux, a brother, Henri Serex of Shreveport, and four
grandchildren.
Adrian Serex is now a member of the Church Eternal. His good influ-
ence and wonderful spirit are the part of his immortality he has achieved
here. We will remember him as a gentleman, a scholar, and a preacher in
the highest tradition. In death he fulfilled the admonition of Paul to Timothy:
"I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord,
the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but
unto all them also that love his appearing."

MRS. SAMUEL LEONIDAS RIGGS
Adah Alice Matthews Riggs was born in New Orleans, the daughter
of Frederich and Adah Matthews. She was a gifted pianist and organist and
generously used her talent in the work of her church. It was while playing
for a revival meeting that she met the Reverend Samuel Leonidas Riggs, a
fervent yonng Methodist preacher who had been assigned to do evangelistic-
work in New Orleans. They were married on February 1, 1905 by Bishop
Henry Clay Morrison.
With energetic devotion she accompanied her husband to a succession of
parsonage homes, serving churches in DeRidder, Kentwood, St. Francisville,
Opelousas, Mooringsport, and Cedar Grove, Shreveport. In 1928 Brother
Riggs retired because of ill health and they made their home in Shreveport.
She shared with her husband a devotion to the poor and afflicted, and for
seven years she served as the first president of Goodwill Industries in
Shreveport. She was a member of Magnolia Chapter, O.E.S., and an active
member of First Methodist Church.
Mrs. Riggs died on January 9, 1967, in Shreveport. Funeral services
were conduced by Dr. Ben Oliphint and the Reverend P. M. Caraway. She
was laid to rest beside her husband in Greenwood Cemetery, Shreveport.
She is survived by a son, Leonard M. Riggs of Longview, Texas; a grand-
son, Leonard M. Riggs, Jr. of Dallas, Texas; a sister, Mrs. A. D. Turner of
Minden, Louisiana; and a number of nieces and nephews.
Her personal buoyancy and zest for living, her love of people and "salt
of the earth" kind of goodness, bear a lasting witness to the words of
Browning:
"But God has a few of us whom he whispers in the ear;
The rest may reason and welcome; 'tis we musicians
know."

MRS. LETHA FOSTER WYNNE
A Tribute by Mrs. P. H. Wade, Jr.
Daughter of Rev. and Mrs. A. M. Wynne
Mrs. Letha Foster Wynne died at 5:00 P.M., Sunday, March 5, 1967.
Funeral services were held at 2:30 P.M., Monday at Kilpatrick Funeral home
in Bernice, Louisiana with the Rev. Byrd L. Terry officiating. Burial was in
Forest Park Cemetery, Shreveport, Louisiana.
Mrs. Letha Foster Wynne, daughter of John Kirk Foster and Amanda
Jane Hayes was born September 15, 1882, in Vernon Parish. There were
five brothers and four girls.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 225
Survivors of Mrs. Wynne are one brother, Le Roy Foster of Leesville,
and two sisters, Mrs. Leslie Hamner and Mrs. E. A. Hamner both of Shreve-
port, Louisiana.
Mrs. Wynne was educated at Ft. Jessop Academy and prior to her mar-
riage was Post Mistress of Anacoco, Louisiana. Her father was a long time
teacher in Louisiana.
Mr. Ardis M. Wynne and Miss Letha Foster were united in wedlock
October 25, 1917. They have one child, Mrs. Emeline Wade, of Oak Ridge,
Louisiana. She was born November 6, 1918.
Rev. and Mrs. Wynne began their work together in the Methodist
Episcopal Church in the Gulf Texas Conference. Then was transferred to
the Louisiana Conference December 3, 1925, which they served together
until retirement in 1954 in Bernice, Louisiana.
Mother was a devoted wife and took an active part in all Christian work
with her husband. She was capable in many fields of church work from
music to teaching. Mother was a member of the Eastern Star and took part
in club work in her younger years.
Rev. and Mrs. Wynne were on the Zachary, Slaughter work 1927 - 1931.
They were beloved in both churches. Mrs. Wynne organized a Woman's
Missionary Society in Slaughter in 1928. In 1958 that W.S.C.S. honored her
with a Life Membership Pin.
This is a poem she kept in her Bible which expresses most what I want
to say.
I thank thee, Lord, that grief can't always last
That there's an end to sorrow's darkest day.
Then give me gratitude for pleasures past.
The joys thou sawest fit to take away.
The treasures that were lent me for awhile, and then recalled.
O help me Lord to smile and say,
Thy will be done sincere and true,
And give me work these empty hands to do.
MRS. PERRY O. LOWREY
Mrs. Perry O. Lowrey, widow of the Reverend Perry O. Lowrey of the
Louisiana Conference, died on July 23, 1966. Funeral services were held in
the Mansfield Methodist Church on July 26 by Dr. Guy M. Hicks, assisted
by Rev. George F. Pearce and Rev. R. W. Bengtson. Interment was in the
Mansfield cemetery, where she was laid to rest by her husband and one
son, Lamar.
226 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
Mrs. Lowrey was born in Seguin, Texas on December 22, 1879, the
daughter of Lucius Mirabeau McGehee and Frances Elizabeth Brown Mc-
Gehee. She was a descendent of the Mirabeau B. Lamar family and a niece
of Bishop Hiram Abiff Boaz (deceased) of Texas.
While serving as organist of Sherman St. Methodist Church in San
Antonio, Texas, young Miss McGehee met Rev. P. O. Lowrey of Mansfield,
Louisiana, a young minister who was holding a revival in the Sherman St.
church. They were married on July 16, 1902, and returned to the Louisiana
Conference where their first pastorate was in Bastrop.
Together they served faithfully in many capacities in Louisiana, specializ-
ing in the pastoral ministry and in rural missions. At one time Rev. Lowrey
was Executve Secretary of Missions and his wife was a loyal partner in this
Conference-wide work. Except for the earliest years, Mansfield was their
home and there they reared a family of ten children (one deceased) who arc
known today as outstanding Christian leaders wherever they live.
After her husband's death in 1929, Mrs. Lowrey continued to make her
home in Mansfield and to be active in church and community. As a musician
she served First Methodist Church there as pianist and organist. She was a
faithful and useful member of the (then) Woman's Missionary Society, and a
church member whose church and home came first. As both father and
mother to her growing children, she saw to it that they were taught a deep
and loving church devotion.
During the declining years of her life Mrs. Lowrey lived with the family
of her eldest daughter Grace and husband, Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Miller, in
Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Her last years of infirmity were spent in the La
Rocca Nursing Home, Tuscaloosa. She died there on July 23, 1966, at the
age of eighty-six.
Surviving relatives include an only sister, Mrs. J. W. Lowrey of Mansfield,,
nine children and numerous grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Her children
are: Grace: Mrs. D. A. Miller, Tuscaloosa, Alabama; Ruth: Mrs. R. A. Kobs,
Columbus, Georgia; Francis: Mr. F. M. Lowrey, Monroe, Louisiana; Brunner:
Mr. B. E. Lowrey, Mansfield, Louisiana; Perry: Mr. Perry C. Lowrey, Caracas,
Venezuela; Louise: Mrs. W. E. Hulsey, Huntsville, La.; Evelyn: Mrs. C. E.
Freeland, Lucedale, Mississippi; Marvin: Mr. Marvin Lowrey, Maplewood,
Louisiana; Wilbur: Mr. Wilbur Lowrey, Washington, D. C.
I was Mrs. Lowrey's pastor in Mansfield and knew her as her life
spanned some difficult years of depression. Her whole life was one of
pioneering service, and I have many joyous memories of her as we worked
together in church and community. To her, life was truly a sacrament and
religion was a matter of uplift and even laughter and keen wit in the midst
of daily duties.
Her faith was an inspiration to me as it was to her family, her church
and her community. Her service to others always seemed an outpouring of
love, and her many sacrifices were made with joy and a deep sense of
dedication.
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 227
As we officiated at the last, loving rites, we felt that relatives and friends
in the Mansfield Church were there to give tribute and respect and love
to a truly great Christian. We believe with all our hearts that she is with
the Heavenly Father in that "house not made with hands, eternal in the
heavens."
Guy M. Hicks
MRS. W. W. HOLMES
Mrs. W. W. Holmes, one of the grand ladies of Louisiana Methodism
died in Baton Rouge Nov. 29, 1966 at the age of 90. The services at the
Wm. B. Reiley University Methodist Church were conducted by Rev. Jack
Cooke her present pastor, and Dr. W. E. Trice who was her pastor since
the death of Dr. W. W. Holmes in New Orleans in 1946.
She was born in Bristol, Tenn., March 23, 1876. Her family moved to
New Orleans in 1904 where she met and married a young minister, Rev. W.
W. Holmes, Dec. 19, 1907.
With the passing of this gracious lady of the Methodist parsonage so
many of us pause to remember with deep affection the fruitful ministry of Dr.
and Mrs. W. W. Holmes who touched and transformed so many lives in their
beloved Louisiana Conference. They were a team; and during their
service years on the New Orleans district they enriched the lives of their
preachers and inspired their parsonage families with hope, vision and
dedication.
Mrs. Holmes held her values always in proper proportion during the
heavy demands of parsonage life. Her husband and children came first, and
her devotion to them was a measure of her own calling from God.
After the death of Dr. Holmes she moved to Baton Rouge where her
children reside and where she devoted many years to various activities in the
University Methodist Church. Dr. W. E. Trice was her pastor and found
in her a true friend, counselor and inspiration.
Dr. Trice and Dr. Jas. T. Harris, so closely associated with her and
Dr. Holmes, speak eloquently of her gracious qualities as a woman, a home
maker, and a church leader. On all occasions she was a gracious hostess
and in this expressed her love for people. She sparkled with a sense of
humor making herself the center of her wit. She remained ever a student of
the Bible and served with great effectiveness in the Church School and
Woman's Society of Christian Service. The many lives she touched will for-
ever be enriched because she passed this way.
Her great host of friends bid her farewell and turn in gratitude to God
who gave this life to us in this generation.

228 JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE
REVEREND LOUIS HOFFPAUIR
Reverend Louis Hoffpauir was born in Indian Bayou, Louisiana on
August 9, 1888. He was the son of Mr. E. B. Hoffpauir and Mrs. Olive
Morgan Hoffpauir and was reared on a farm in the Indian Bayou Area.
After completing his elementary work, he attended Abbeville High
School where he graduated. Due to his responsibilities on the farm, he was
not able to attend College but was always very studious and enjoyed reading.
On January 16, 1907 he was married to Miss Alice Spell of the Lafayette
area. From this union two sons and two daughters were born. Brother
Hoffpauir is now survived by his wife and the four children: Herbert Hoff-
pauir, Claude Hoffpauir, Mrs. George Hubbard and Mrs. H. S. Heaton.
In addition there are ten grandchildren.
At the time of his marriage, Brother Hoffpauir was not a member of any
Church. He was later converted and united with the Methodist Church. He
had a very vital religious experience and became active immediately. His
first work was with young people. He then assumed the responsibility for
conducting prayer services for the adults in his local church and assisted his
minister in many other ways.
He soon revealed that he had a definite call to the ministry. This call
was so clear that he could not ignore it. He had faith that he could prepare
himself with the help of his Lord and many friends. His Bishop and several
ministers with whom he was acquainted loaned him books and gave him a
recommended reading list, which he immediately began to study intensively.
He took work by correspondence and was soon showing real progress in his
development as a minister. He was to become one of the most effective
members of the Louisiana Annual Conference.
Brother Louis Hoffpauir was deeply loved by the congregations which he
served as well as by his fellow-ministers. He was a kindly and considerate
man. He had the personal magnetism which drew people to him and gave
them confidence in him and faith in The Lord Jesus Christ. Louis was an
unassuming person, but one who generated deep loyalties in people. He was
a friend of the executive, the white collar worker and the laboring man. This
gave him a rare understanding and insight into the interests and needs of
people and an ability to communicate with them. This enabled him to
interpret God to them in a way that made Him real and personal.
Brother Hoffpauir loved the out-of-doors, and his avocation was that of
raising rice and live stock. This proved to be a source of great interest and
joy to him in the closing years of his life. Nothing pleased him more than
to be able to take his friends out to his farm near Sulphur.
He retired in the year 1960 from the First Methodist Church in
Crowley, where he had served for seven years. He had thus completed
approximately 50 years in the active ministry. During these years he served
the following Churches and Districts: 1910-1912 Bell City, Hayes and West
Lake; 1912-1915 Bayou Chicot, Ville Platte, White Castle and Garland;
JOURNAL OF THE LOUISIANA CONFERENCE 229
1915-1922 Henning Memorial, Sulphur, and Vinton; 1922-1925 Coushatta;
1925-1930 First Church, Lafayette; 1930-1933 First Church, West Monroe;
1934 Homer; 1934-1938 Ruston District; 1938-1944 First Church, Haynesville;
1944-1950 Ruston District; 1950-1953 New Iberia; 1953-1960 First Church,
Crowley.
After leaving Crowley, Brother and Mrs. Hoffpauir retired to their home
in Sulphur. However, he was not to retire from the ministry. He served
as interim Pastor of the St. Luke Church in Lake Charles for some nine
months during 1961-1962. Through his help and leadership, the Wesley
Church was organized in North Sulphur early in 1963. On April 14 of that
year Charter Membership was observed with 107 people uniting with the
Church. This was a very happy occasion for both Brother and Mrs. Hoffpauir.
This included 27 people on profession of Faith, 16 from other denominations
and 64 from other Methodist Churches.
Brother Hoffpauir continued to serve the Wesley Church for about one
and one-half years until his health began to fail. He gradually grew weaker
over the months but maintained his fine spirit and deep faith. He passed on
to his eternal reward on December 16, 1966. Interment was in the Mimosa
Pines Garden of Memories just south of Sulphur.
